LG: shorthanding subgroups Forum

[multiprose]

i've tried using uppercase letters to differentiate one subgroup from the other like
ABCDE for 5 children
wxyz for 4 adults

for a rule like A must be in the same group as w and z

i'll write [Awz]

but i still sometimes get confused and become slowed by not distinguishing various variables as being part of different subgroups quickly enough. i don't think i'm fluid as i should be.

do you guys write anything special to remember to discriminate between different subgroups or just use your working memory?

Subscripts work pretty well for me.
