+You will get lots of practice
+using braces as we go along.
+One thing to keep in mind is that
+braces can appear ______within braces.
+(Remember that I said that anywhere you
+could use an "x" you could put something in
+braces instead. So to get this:
+.EQ
+e sup {x sup {pi +1} + y sup {pi +1}}
+.EN
+you can type
+
+ e sup {x sup {pi +1} + y sup {pi +1}}
+
+The big superscript (the one on the "e") has
+a pair of braces that take in everything.
+Then the "x" and the "y" each have braces
+to delimit their superscripts.
+Of course the braces have to go in the right
+places, or you won't get the output you
+want.
+
+To verify that you are still following this
+lesson, modify "Example" so it looks like
+this, then type "ready".

+Don't forget that you need braces for the overall superscript,
+and also for the "over" part.
