you put [math] and [/math] around anything you want converted. similar to the way spoilers are used opening and closing bracketed words.

it is like html tags that open and close with a / on the close but it uses brackets [ like markdown instead of angle brackets <

then you enter the formula you want. Latex is a system for high-quality typesetting. It is most often used for medium-to-large technical or scientific documents but it can be used for almost any form of publishing.

The plugin uses MathJax site - so you can use Latex commands and mathjax site converts it.

lots of tutorials on the web. https://www.mathjax.org/

e.g. you can copy and paste these examples to a comment or discussion

[math] sum_{i=0}^n i^2 = \frac{(n^2+n)(2n+1)}{6}[/math]

[math]\left(\frac{\sqrt x}{y^3}\right)[/math]

[math]{a+1\over b+1}[/math]

[math]\mathfrak  p \mathfrak R \mathfrak O \mathfrak S  \mathfrak P \mathfrak E  \mathfrak R [/math]

[math]\mathscr A \mathscr BCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ [/math]


[math]\cup \cap \setminus \subset \subseteq \subsetneq \supset \in \notin \emptyset \varnothing[/math]


[math]\overline xyz [/math]

[math]\overrightarrow prosper [/math]

[math]\widehat xy[/math]

[math]\begin{equation}
\chi(M_g) = 2-2g,
\end{equation}[/math]

[math]\alpha_j^i  \hookrightarrow[/math]

[math]\Phi(x) = 1 - \Phi(-x) =
\frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}} \int_{-\infty}^x e^{-\xi^2/2} d\xi[/math]

and see that it converts to this

@Prosper

you went thru three sets of spoilers and now you know https://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/241865/#Comment_241865 [spoiler] but not here [/spoiler]
