C
cdot (multiplication) $$$a\cdot~b$$$ gives $$a\cdot~b$$ |
|
chi (lower case greek letter) $$$\chi$$$ gives $$\chi$$ |
|
constants - Numbers in formulas are interpreted as constants and they are rendered in non-italic roman font face, which is a widely used convention.
- Following this convention, variables are shown in italic.
- Exp.: $$$f(x)=3a+x$$$ gives
$$f(x)=3a+x$$ |

contour integral - General syntax for symbols with a kind of lower and upper limits:
\symbolname_{<em>lowerexpression</em>}^{<em>upperexpression</em>} - In general, there are two ways how these lower and upper expressions can be placed: centered below and above the symbol or in a subscript / superscript manner. In the first case the symbol name is preceded by the word "big", in the second there is no prefix.
- Syntax for the contour integral symbol:
$$$\bigoint_{0}^{\infty}$$$ gives $$\bigoint_{0}^{\infty}$$ and $$$\oint_{0}^{\infty}$$$ gives $$\oint_{0}^{\infty}$$ $$$\LARGE\bigoint_{\small0}^{\small\infty}$$$ gives $$\LARGE\bigoint_{\small0}^{\small\infty}$$ and $$$\large\oint_{\small0}^{\small\infty}$$$ gives $$\large\oint_{\small0}^{\small\infty}$$ |

coproduct - General syntax for symbols with a kind of lower and upper limits:
\symbolname_{<em>lowerexpression</em>}^{<em>upperexpression</em>} - In general, there are two ways how these lower and upper expressions can be placed: centered below and above the symbol or in a subscript / superscript manner. In the first case the symbol name is preceded by the word "big", in the second there is no prefix.
- Note: mimeTeX seems currently only to support the \bigcoprod command.
- Syntax for coproduct symbol:
$$$\bigcoprod_{i=k}^{n}$$$ gives $$\bigcoprod_{i=k}^{n}$$ $$$\LARGE\bigcoprod_{\small{i=k}}^{\small~n}$$$ gives $$\LARGE\bigcoprod_{\small{i=k}}^{\small~n}$$ |
