3.11.6 <steps-informal>

The <steps-informal> element allows authors to describe procedural task information without placing each step in an individual container element, which is a requirement of the related <steps> and <steps-unordered> elements. For example, <steps-informal> might contain a paragraph that describes more than one step in a single sentence, or it might contain sentences that mix steps together with information about the steps.
