algebraic expression

using @@@ x=y^2@@@ to create @@ x=y^2@@

alpha (lower case greek letter)

$$\alpha$$ gives \alpha

angle bracket

  • Syntax: \left<...\right>
  • Ex.: $$\left<f,g\right>$$ gives

\left


arithmetic operations

  • Type arithmetic operations and "=" as usual.
  • Exp.: $$f(x)=x-2b+(3a/c)$$ gives

f(x)=x-2b+(3a/c)

  • See also keyword "fraction" for extended capabilities.

array

$$\begin{array}{|ccc|}a_1&a_2&a_3\\ b_1&b_2&b_3\\ c_1&c_2&c_3\end{array}$$ is \begin{array}{|ccc|}a_1&a_2&a_3\\ b_1&b_2&b_3\\ c_1&c_2&c_3\end{array}
