Class ParseError

src/ParseError.ts:13–74

* This is the ParseError class, which is the main error thrown by KaTeX * functions when something has gone wrong. This is used to distinguish internal * errors from errors in the expression that the user provided. * * If possible, a caller should provide a Token or ParseNode with information *

 * about where in the source string the problem occurred.
