Trying to use Latex
-
@CoherentMango In the old days of Daily Challenge, we didn't have the forum, and instead used a Discussions feature on the course website which didn't support Latex. We had to make .png images of Latex and paste them in. It was quite a bit more onerous. So I really love the built-in Latex feature of this forum!
-
@debbie Haha that must have been really hard to do. I'm thankful that at least there was a forum when I joined
-
Latex seems really hard/confusing/complicated...
-
@divinedolphin Don't worry, it seems hard at first, but you'll soon learn enough to write little bits here and there. And making a little bit of code is really rewarding, however small the code may be!
It might be easier to click on the "%" button above. Then, you don't need to type the backslash and parentheses.
You can type directly some code like this, without worrying about the "wrapper" of the \ \ ( and \ \)
x^2 + x + 4 = 5
-
@debbie When you press the % symbol, it does this:
$$G_{\mu \nu }+\Lambda g_{\mu \nu }={8\pi G \over c^{4}}T_{\mu \nu } $$???
-
@RZ923 Yes, that's an example text that they always put in. Just delete that and type your own code.

@debbie thanks

Why isn't it working?
