How to Type Math
-
@divinedolphin I'd suggest searching for "Markdown change font." Markdown is the language that this forum uses, and it's a shorthand form of html code. I don't know how to do this myself, sorry! I hope you have luck finding the answer!

Does the sigma function work here?

@The-Rogue-Blade
Thanks for asking! You can type the Sigma \( \sum \) by itself like this:
\\( \sum \\)
or as the sum of a sequence of terms, like this:
\\( \sum_{n=1}^{n=10} n^2 \\)
\( \sum_{n=1}^{n=10} n^2 \)
\\( \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} n^2 \\)
\( \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} n^2 \)
I hope this helps!

\[\text{L}^\text{A}\text{T}_\text{E}\text{X}\]
\[L^AT_EX\]

@divinedolphin How come that post still shows up as code? When I edit it the preview shows up fine, but this is what I see right now.

@divinedolphin Try this instead:
\(LaTeX\)
\(\text{L}^\text{A}\text{T}_\text{E}\text{X}\)
\\(LaTeX\\) \\(\text{L}^\text{A}\text{T}_\text{E}\text{X}\\)

@divinedolphin Yes, I've noticed that too; the square brackets don't seem to render. I usually use the double backslash with the round brackets.

\(\LaTeX\)
\(\text{L}^\text{A}\text{T}_\text{E}\text{X}\)
\(L^AT_EX\) -
@divinedolphin Yay, you did it!
