| 3 | For people that want to put mathematics in their wiki, [MathJax](https://www.mathjax.org/) |
|||
| 4 | comes to the rescue. Since there is no markdown standard for LaTeX, multiple syntax |
|||
| 5 | styles have been established. An Otter Wiki supports two of them: |
|||
| 6 | ||||
| 7 | ## TeX Style |
|||
| 8 | ||||
| 9 | The TeX style notation, where inline math is encapsulated with `$` and |
|||
| 10 | equations with `$$`, e.g. |
|||
| 11 | ||||
| 12 | When $a \ne 0$, there are two solutions |
|||
| 13 | to $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ and they are |
|||
| 14 | ||||
| 15 | $$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.$$ |
|||
| 16 | ||||
| 17 | When $a \ne 0$, there are two solutions to $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ and they are |
|||
| 18 | ||||
| 19 | $$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.$$ |
|||
| 20 | ||||
| 21 | ## Code Style |
|||
| 22 | ||||
| 23 | The Code style, where inline math is encapsulated with |
|||
| 24 | `` `$` `` and equations with in code blocks with language `math`, e.g. |
|||
| 25 | ||||
| 26 | When `$a \ne 0$`, there are two solutions |
|||
| 27 | to `$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$` and they are |
|||
| 28 | ||||
| 29 | ```math |
|||
| 30 | x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}. |
|||
| 31 | ``` |
|||
| 32 | ||||
| 33 | When `$a \ne 0$`, there are two solutions to `$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$` and they are |
|||
| 34 | ```math |
|||
| 35 | x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}. |
|||
| 36 | ``` |
