Produce a mathematical array. This environment can only be used in math
mode, and normally appears within a displayed mathematics environment
such as @code{equation} (@pxref{equation}). Column entries are
-separated by an ampersand at domain.hid{&}. Rows are terminated with
-double-backslashes at domain.hid{\\}. The required argument @var{cols}
-describes the number of columns, their alignment, and the formatting of
-the intercolumn regions.

-The @code{array} environment is just like the @code{tabular}

+There are two ways that @code{array} diverges from @code{tabular}. The

+textstyle (except if the @var{cols} definition specifies the column with
@code{@@p@{..@}}, which causes the entry to be typeset in text mode).
