public class Begingroup
extends AbstractCode

This class provides an implementation for the primitive \begingroup.

The Primitive \begingroup

The primitive \begingroup starts a new group. The new group inherits all properties from the previous group.

The group is usually ended by a corresponding \endgroup. If the job is completed without encountering a proper \endgroup. then an error is raised.

Syntax

The formal description of this primitive is the following:
    ⟨begingroup⟩
      → \begingroup
