| + | # MathJax |
| + | |
| + | For people that want to put mathematics in their wiki, [MathJax](https://www.mathjax.org/) |
| + | comes to the rescue. Since there is no markdown standard for LaTeX, multiple syntax |
| + | styles have been established. An Otter Wiki supports two of them: |
| + | |
| + | ## TeX Style |
| + | |
| + | The TeX style notation, where inline math is encapsulated with `$` and |
| + | equations with `$$`, e.g. |
| + | |
| + | When $a \ne 0$, there are two solutions |
| + | to $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ and they are |
| + | |
| + | $$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.$$ |
| + | |
| + | When $a \ne 0$, there are two solutions to $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ and they are |
| + | |
| + | $$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.$$ |
| + | |
| + | ## Code Style |
| + | |
| + | The Code style, where inline math is encapsulated with |
| + | `` `$` `` and equations with in code blocks with language `math`, e.g. |
| + | |
| + | When `$a \ne 0$`, there are two solutions |
| + | to `$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$` and they are |
| + | |
| + | ```math |
| + | x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}. |
| + | ``` |
| + | |
| + | When `$a \ne 0$`, there are two solutions to `$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$` and they are |
| + | ```math |
| + | x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}. |
| + | ``` |
