AMSTeX: Vertical Line in Matrix

In summary, AMSTeX is a typesetting system that uses the TeX software and is ideal for creating complex mathematical and technical documents. To insert a vertical line in a matrix using AMSTeX, you can use the \vert or \mid commands. The vertical line can also be customized using \arrayrulecolor and \arrayrulewidth. It is possible to have multiple vertical lines in a matrix using AMSTeX by using the \vline and \multicolumn commands. Other useful commands include \cline and \hline for creating partial or full horizontal lines in the matrix.

Never mind, found an alternative:
Code:
\left[
\begin{array}{cccc|c}
1 & 0 & 3 & -1 & 0 \\
0 & 1 & 1 & -1 & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
\end{array}
\right]
$$
\left[
\begin{array}{cccc|c}
1 & 0 & 3 & -1 & 0 \\
0 & 1 & 1 & -1 & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
\end{array}
\right]
$$
 

1. What is AMSTeX?

AMSTeX is a typesetting system designed for mathematical and technical documents. It is based on the TeX typesetting software and is particularly well-suited for creating complex equations and mathematical formulas.

2. How do I insert a vertical line in a matrix using AMSTeX?

To insert a vertical line in a matrix using AMSTeX, you can use the command \vert or \mid within the matrix environment. For example, \vert or \mid placed between two columns in a matrix will create a vertical line between those two columns.

3. Can I customize the vertical line in a matrix using AMSTeX?

Yes, you can customize the vertical line in a matrix using AMSTeX by adjusting the spacing, thickness, and color of the line. This can be done by using the \arrayrulecolor and \arrayrulewidth commands within the matrix environment.

4. Is it possible to have multiple vertical lines in a matrix using AMSTeX?

Yes, it is possible to have multiple vertical lines in a matrix using AMSTeX. You can use the \vline command to add additional vertical lines within the matrix environment. You can also use the \multicolumn command to specify the number of columns that should be separated by a vertical line.

5. Are there any other commands I should be aware of when using vertical lines in a matrix with AMSTeX?

Yes, there are a few other commands that can be useful when working with vertical lines in a matrix using AMSTeX. These include \cline, which allows you to create a partial horizontal line between specific columns, and \hline, which creates a full horizontal line between all columns in the matrix.
