== 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) |

In re Execute Ramsey Mathprog; what were you trying to achieve with that? What language were you writing in? –Donal Fellows 13:16, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
Solution pages
Hey there. I see you've been creating separate pages for the long output from Mathprog programs. That's good, but I want to suggest creating pages with titles like Task name/Language name to make sure people using every language can get a separate page if they need it. A page like KnapU sol should go at Knapsack problem/Unbounded/Mathprog instead. An added benefit of doing that is that it automatically adds a link back to the task at the top of the output page. Thanks for your solutions so far. It's nice to get new languages here. --Mwn3d 14:20, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
