== Math on RC ==
Did you know that we can use pieces of text like “<nowiki><math>a_1 + b^2</math></nowiki>” (with [[TeX]]/[[LaTeX]] formatted code inside) to create stuff that renders as:
:<math>a_1 + b^2</math>
This lets you avoid having to fiddle around with uploading pictures. (Mediawiki's configured to convert simple math to UNICODE for rendering, and complex stuff gets run through (La)TeX.) It's pretty awesome to use this for things like [[Continued fractions]]… –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 21:28, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
