Ph. D. Thesis, University of Glasgow, 1962. U. S. Pat. 4.7 Footnotes Footnotes to the text are to be avoided. For footnotes to tables, see Section 4.8. Every table must be referred to in the text.
Tables are to be numbered with Arabic numerals in the sequence in which they occur.
Every table must begin with a caption that starts with, for example, Table 3. The caption must explain in detail the contents of the table. As the table itself it must be written so that it can be read and understood without reference to the text. Every column and every line of a table must be labeled unambiguously and indicate units wherever data are reported. Footnotes to a table should be indicated by lower-case letters in parentheses and typed directly under the table.
