noz92 Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 What do you mean by abreviations. LaTeX doesn't use any abreviations in Greek letters. [math]\alpha[/math] is just \alpha, [math]\beta[/math] is just \beta, [math]\gamma[/math] is \gamma, and the capital letters are [math]A[/math] is A, [math]B[/math] is B, and [math]\Gamma[/math] is \Gamma. No abreviations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ydoaPs Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 test:[math]\lambda[/math] some sybols use abbreviations. like infinity isnt[math]\infty[/math], it is [math]\infty[/math] or square root, or fration. i just assumed that some of them would be abbreviated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt grime Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 lambda, not lamda. all greek letters are given by slash(full name), capitalized for capital letters. there is also varphi and varrho if you like that kind of thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted March 14, 2005 Author Share Posted March 14, 2005 You don't need the \[ and \]. All of the stuff encapsulated by math tags is already put into the displaymath environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dapthar Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 How do you post the not equal sign (=/=)It's \neq Example: [math]\neq[/math] Also, I vote that the "Quick LaTex Tutorial Thread" be cleared out, so that it can be a bit more effective reference for forumers. Just keep any "tuorial" posts and the links to LaTeX references from the thread, and remove everything else. For convenience, here's all the references that were in the thread: http://www.maths.tcd.ie/~dwilkins/LaTeXPrimer/ - the LaTeX primer http://omega.albany.edu:8008/Symbols.html - some symbols that you might find useful. http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/symbols/comprehensive/symbols-a4.pdf - A relatively small' date=' ([i']approximately 2.3 MB[/i]) comprehensive set of symbol tables for [math]\LaTeX[/math'] and some of its add ons. here is a really short guide. with most of the notation in there http://www.maths.nottingham.ac.uk/local/Guides/short-math-guide.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted June 1, 2005 Author Share Posted June 1, 2005 Thanks I'm thinking that some of you more techy people out there might want an option to display MathML instead of the normal images. Is there any usefulness for this amongst people, or am I wasting my time? Incidentally, I might be pushing images over to PNG for better transparency. I've found a fix for IE to do proper alpha blending, so I'll try it out next week some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
