Use of LaTeX for separately displayed formulas and more complicated inline formulas; Use of LaTeX for formulas involving symbols that are not regularly rendered in Unicode (see MOS:BBB) Avoid formulas in section headings, and when this is necessary, use raw HTML (see Finite field for an example)
In TeX, "x" means mathematical variable "", whereas in HTML "x" is generic and somewhat ambiguous. On the other hand, if you encode the same formula as "{{math |< var > x </ var >}}", adding the var tag doesn't affect the visual result x and provides the additional semantic description that x is a variable. This requires diligence and more ...
AMS-LaTeX is a collection of LaTeX document classes and packages developed for the American Mathematical Society (AMS). Its additions to LaTeX include the typesetting of multi-line and other mathematical statements, document classes, and fonts containing numerous mathematical symbols. [1] It has largely superseded the plain TeX macro package ...
A mathematical markup language is a computer notation for representing mathematical formulae, based on mathematical notation.Specialized markup languages are necessary because computers normally deal with linear text and more limited character sets (although increasing support for Unicode is obsoleting very simple uses).
This example uses the <annotation> element, which can be used to embed a semantic annotation in non-XML format, for example to store the formula in the format used by an equation editor such as StarMath or the markup using LaTeX syntax.
x is the argument of the complex number (angle between line to point and x-axis in polar form). The notation is less commonly used in mathematics than Euler's formula, e ix, which offers an even shorter notation for cos x + i sin x, but cis(x) is widely used as a name for this function in software libraries.
There is at least one OCR tool that can convert a handwritten formula to Latex and other formats. Mathpix allows 10 snips a month free. I don't know enough to edit the body of the Help page (I've not yet used Mathpix so don't know how good it is, and how compatible with Wikipedia, and don't know what else is out there), but I think there should be a Tools section with this sort of information.
The formula is printed in a way a person would write by hand, or typeset the equation. In a document, entering mathematics mode is done by starting with a $ symbol, then entering a formula in TeX syntax, and closing again with another of the same symbol.
