The illustrations can be numbered within the section. Moreover, its number includes the number of the section and the number of the illustration itself in the section. Example:
Figure 3.2.
An example of a link to a figure in the text:
Figure 2 shows a diagram of the algorithm for finding the maximum element in an array of numbers. The input data here is an array of real numbers, and the output is the number of the array element corresponding to the maximum number ...
An example of a caption caption:
Figure 2 - Scheme of the algorithm for finding the maximum element in an array of numbers
(no dot)
If there is only one drawing, it is not numbered.

15. An explanation of the meanings of symbols and numerical coefficients should be given directly under the formula in the same sequence in which they are given in the formula. Formulas in the report should be numbered with sequential numbering throughout the entire report in Arabic numerals in parentheses in the extreme right position on the line.

A = a: b, (1)
B = c: e. (2)
