`<f>` | (Feature) associates a name with a value of any of several different types.
Attributes | (In addition to global attributes)
`name` | provides a name for a feature.
| Datatype: NMTOKEN
| Values: A name token.
| Default: #REQUIRED
`org` | indicates organization of given value or values as singleton, set, bag or list.
| Datatype: (single|set|bag|list)
| Legal values are:
single | indicates that the given value is a singleton.
set | indicates that the given values are organized as a set.
bag | indicates that the given values are organized as a bag (multiset).
list | indicates that the given values are organized as a list.
| Default: #IMPLIED
Note | If the `org` attribute value has the value `single`, and more than one value for the feature is given, then only the first value is used.
`rel` | indicates the relation between the values that are given as the content of the feature or pointed at by the `fVal` attribute and the actual values of the feature.
| Datatype: (eq|ne|sb|ns)
| Legal values are:
eq | indicates that the given values are the actual values.
ne | indicates that the given values are not the actual values.
sb | indicates that the given values are a subset, subbag or sublist of the actual values.
ns | indicates that the given values are not a subset, subbag or sublist of the actual values.
| Default: eq
Note | When the `org` attribute value has the value `single`, then the values `sb` and `ns` are equivalent to the values `eq` and `ne` respectively.
`fVal` | points to the `id` attributes of feature values.
| Datatype: IDREFS
| Values: one or more valid identifiers, separated by white space.
| Default: #IMPLIED
Note | May be used instead of content.

Example

    <f name="gender"><sym value="feminine"/></f>

Note

If content is empty and no `fVal` attribute is present, then value is that specified by `<default>`.
