For simple adjustments we announce the base to be adjusted, B, and the collections to be used for the adjustment, tex2html_wrap_inline36640 . This leads to the following sequence of adjustments. Firstly, the base B is adjusted by the base tex2html_wrap_inline36910 , giving the adjustment tex2html_wrap_inline36868 . Secondly, the base tex2html_wrap_inline34520 is adjusted by the base tex2html_wrap_inline36872 . As well as the standard adjustment, the partial adjustment is also reported. That is, we report both tex2html_wrap_inline36874 and tex2html_wrap_inline36876 , where the latter is the partial adjustment of B by tex2html_wrap_inline36878 , having accounted for tex2html_wrap_inline36880 . This process continues for the remaining information sources tex2html_wrap_inline36882 : at each stage, we report the overall adjustment to that point, together with the partial adjustment representing the change between the tex2html_wrap_inline34732 and the accumulation of the previous tex2html_wrap_inline36886 adjustments.

The base notation discussed in §9.1.2 may be used. Any base which is presented for use during an adjustment must contain only elements having beliefs, and no data elements.
