Typing math

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 by admin

I've added support for typesetting math using LaTeX on the forums.

Example:
Code: [Select][tex]sum_{n = 0}^infty frac{1}{n!} = lim_{ntoinfty} left(1+frac{1}{n}right)^n = e[/tex]
Outputs:


Just in case anyone wanted to write some math that's a little more advanced than basic arithmetic.

Update:

The [tex] bbcode is now deprecated in favor of [math] and [imath]. The former is used for display mode, the latter is for inline mode.

Example of display mode:
n=01n!=limn1+n1n=e
Inline mode is used for math in sentences, like you might want to say 51+27=521 within a sentence.
