Introducing LaTeX Math Typesetting

robphy

I believe that the Equation Editor does not export LaTeX.
One has to use MathType http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathtype/.


Other LaTeX editors
WinEdt http://www.winedt.com/
WinTeX http://www.tex-tools.de/main.html
WinShell http://www.winshell.de/

Maple and Mathematica can also export LaTeX.

Thanks guys for your information,
MathType sounds interesting. But as it costs $119, I downloaded TeXaid (form the same company). I'll explore the other products when I have the time.
I am a little confused by the statement on some of these products that they are not a LaTex system. It appears that you need two pieces of software that will work in conjucntion but I still don't understand what each one does.
I think TexAid should allow me to produce LaTex code to paste into the forum.
When I register for classes in fall, I'll buy Mathematica at academic price.
Thanks again,
--Alex--

Before buying Mathematica, ask in your University about it. Many universities have campus-wide licenses that allow students to use Mathematica from the University's network, and it is often the case that such benefits are not "common knowledge" among students.

You need to produce your equation you need to write:

[tex]\int_{2}^{3} \frac{\arctan}{\sqrt{a^2 + x^2}}dx
[/tex]

yeah i got it...thanks a million...that was gonna drive me crazy

[tex]
\lim_{x\rightarrow \0} \sumf(x)\Delta = \int_{a}^{b}f(x) dx
[/tex]

Does anyone know how I can get this to work locally with windows. I downloaded a couple of programs and I didn't really get any of them to actually show the fomulas.

[tex]
\int_{0}^{h} \frac{1}{2\sqrt{hx}} dx =
\frac{1}{2\sqrt{h}}(2x^\frac{1}{2}) \vert_{0}^{h} = 1[/tex]

You'll need a LaTeX distribution (for example, www.miktex.org).
Basically, you take the latex file (file.tex) and run latex on it.
You get file.dvi, which can be viewed in a dvi viewer (called yap in miktex).

Math Is Hard

Hi, I am trying to use latex to display a math problem but I am having a little trouble getting started, and the function I want to display is a little bit weird.

I(x) = e^ (the integral of -tan x dx)

I am not even sure it can display an integral as an exponent, but I seem to be having plenty of trouble just getting it to display e!

Thanks in advance for your help!

[tex]I(x)=e^{-\int tanx\:dx}[/tex]

woo hoo! muchas gracias, master coda!
