<c01> to <c12> Components, first to twelfth level

The basics of the component element are explained under <c>. Numbered component elements serve the same purpose and have the same attributes as <c>, except they must nest within each other. <c01> may be found within <dsc>. It may contain <c02>. <c02&t; may occur within <c01> and may contain <c03>, etc. This continues to <c12>. Each element identified an intellectually logical section of described materials, which need not coincide with the physical sections.

One may include the same child elements as in <c>. When using numbered component elements, one may not switch to the unnumbered <c> element. Similarly, one may not put numbered component elements within plain <c>.

The best reason to use numbered components instead of unnumbered components is that it allows one to easily visually discern the level at which the component is nested.
