Markdown cell - Latex Script:

Latex is a languange to represent mathematical formula using text.

For Latex documentation please check the wiki:

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Mathematics

Inline and Block Latex

Inline Formula: $x=y$

Block Formula: $$x=y$$

$x=y$ $$x=y$$

Greek Letters

• Alpha: $\alpha A$
• Beta: $\beta B$
• Gamma: $\gamma \Gamma$
• Pi: $\pi \Pi \varpi$
• Phi: $\phi \varphi \Phi$
• Epsilon: $\epsilon \varepsilon$
• Theta: $\theta \Theta \vartheta$
• Rho: $\rho \varrho$
• sigma: $\sigma \Sigma \varsigma$

Alpha: $\alpha A$ Beta: $\beta B$ Gamma: $\gamma \Gamma$ Pi: $\pi \Pi \varpi$ Phi: $\phi \varphi \Phi$ Epsilon: $\epsilon \varepsilon$ Theta: $\theta \Theta \vartheta$ Rho: $\rho \varrho$ sigma: $\sigma \Sigma \varsigma$

Basic operations

• $y = x + 5$
• $y = x - 5$
• $y = 5x$
• $y = x \times 5$
• $y = \frac{x}{5}$
• $y = x \div 5$

$y = x + 5$ $y = x - 5$ $y = 5x$ $y = x \times 5$ $y = \frac{x}{5}$ $y = x \div 5$

Power and Index

• $y_n = x_n - x_{n-1}$
• $y = x^2 - 2x^{x-1}$

markdown
$y_n = x_n - x_{n-1}$
$y = x^2 - 2x^{x-1}$

Fraction Type

• $^1/_2$
• $\frac {1}{2}$

Roots

• $\sqrt{\frac{1}{3}}$
• $\sqrt[3]{2x}$

$^1/_2$ $\frac {1}{2}$

$\sqrt{\frac{1}{3}}$ $\sqrt[3]{2x}$

Sums and Integrals

• Sum : $\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10} t_i$
• Int : $\int\limits_a^b$
• $\int_0^\infty \sin(x^2)$

$\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10} t_i$ $\int\limits_a^b$ $\int_0^\infty \sin(x^2)$
