Can someone explain to me how to use LaTeX plz?

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

@hartnn

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

Huh?

hartnn (hartnn):

write anything in between `\[ ... \] `

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\[ LaTeX Rocks... \]

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\[ Mr Mezz LIkes LaTeX... \]

hartnn (hartnn):

to make the font larger, use `\huge ` \(\huge Latex \: \: \quad Rocks\) for spaces, use `\: or \quad` `\(\huge Latex \: \: \quad Rocks\)`

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\huge Latex \: \: \quad Rocks\)

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\color/ huge Latex \: \: \quad Rocks\)

hartnn (hartnn):

change color using \color \(\huge HI \color{red}{ \quad DMEZZ}\) `\(\huge HI \color{red}{ \quad DMEZZ}\)`

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\huge HI \color{red}{ \quadHARTNN PARTH AND UNCLE}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

\[\LaTeX~\rm rocks\]

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\huge HI \color{red}{ \quad DMEZZ}\)

hartnn (hartnn):

small size using \tiny ....oh and @UnkleRhaukus is here! he is one of the best here :)

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\small HI \color{red}{ \quad uncle}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

To view the formatting used, right click on the text --> show mathjax as ---> tex commands

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\huge HI \color{red}{ \quad UNCLE}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

Use \mbox{...} for typing text.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

``` \[\frac{\alpha}{1\div 2}\times \sin (\theta)\int\limits_2^{\infty}\mathrm d \phi\] ``` \[\frac{\alpha}{1\div 2}\times \sin (\theta)\int\limits_2^{\infty}\mathrm d \phi\]

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

Lets keep it simple for now pplz

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

K's?

hartnn (hartnn):

^lol

Parth (parthkohli):

There is a tutorial by AccessDenied for this.

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

O.o

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\huge HI \color{red}{ \quad UNKLE}\)

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\huge HI \color{blue}{ \quad DMEZZ}\)

hartnn (hartnn):

worth going through this: http://openstudy.com/users/accessdenied#/updates/4fa5b375e4b029e9dc35a2cf

Parth (parthkohli):

Avoid using huge text. Use \large at most

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\large Guesswhat \color{red}{ \quad PARTH}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

Use \mbox{text here} for typing normal text.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no comment cant say it on here

Parth (parthkohli):

The TeX on this site uses the mathmode, so you might have to explain that you wanna type text

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[\large\text{HI } \color{orange}{\text{DMEZZ}}\]

Parth (parthkohli):

\[\LaTeX~\rm rocks\]

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\large Guess what \color{red}{ \quad guys}\)

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

its saturday!

hartnn (hartnn):

not everywhere :P

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

Naw its friday here

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\large I'm going to a concert tonight \color{red}{ \quad GUYSSS}\)

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

whos playing?

Parth (parthkohli):

Use \mbox!

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

*\[\mbox{who's playing}\]

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\huge i \color{red}{ \quad believe it is a band called mercy me}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

While you are at it, look at this: http://meta.math.stackexchange.com/questions/5020/mathjax-basic-tutorial-and-quick-reference

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

\(\huge theres a troll in math \color{blue}{ \quad GUYSS}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

BTW, you don't need to type that in TeX when you have ASCII.

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

what u mean?

Parth (parthkohli):

Use LaTeX only when you really need to.

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):
