Question

How do you do the step function brackets in Latex?
looks like [ except double vertical lines.
Thanks!

Answer 1

latex for what exactly do you need, I am sorry, i don't get the question.

Answer 2

just use [

Answer 3

space ~ (in equation editor)

Answer 4

step function

looks like this except clean

Answer 5

I don't exactly get what you are asking, hold on....

Answer 6

\[[|.............| ]\]this?

Answer 7

\[\huge [|x|]\]
?

Answer 8

\[\sum_{a}^{a}~~~~~~~~~~?\]

Answer 9

\huge\color{red}{ }

fill in the space feel free to switch the color....

[| |] and you can paste this into the huge latex.

it would look like \huge\color{red}{ |~~~~~ | }
looks like
\[\huge\color{red}{ |~~~~~ | }\]

Answer 10

Or\[\huge\color{red}{ [|~~~~~ | ] }\]this is used: \huge\color{red}{ [|~~~~~ | ] }

Answer 11

All depends on what you need.

Answer 12

The floor function is also called the greatest integer or entier (French for "integer") function, and its value at x is called the integral part or integer part of x; for negative values of x the latter terms are sometimes instead taken to be the value of the ceiling function, i.e., the value of x rounded to an integer towards 0. The language APL uses ⌊x; other computer languages commonly use notations like entier(x) (Algol), INT(x) (BASIC), or floor(x)(C, C++, R, and Python).[7] In mathematics, it can also be written with boldface or double brackets [\![x]\!].[8]

Answer 13

\[ [\![x]\!]\]

Answer 14

just type [\![x]\!] and you get the double brackets around the x.

supposedly, you can do double parentheses as well...

\( (\!(x)\!)\)

Answer 15

i think the \! shrinks the space in between
i wonder if it works with adjustable size brackets and parentheses?

Answer 16

for space use ~
the more of ~ you use the bigger the space

Answer 17

\[\left(\!\!\!\left( \frac{ a }{ b } \right)\!\!\!\right)\] had to use 3 \! in between two \right(
\right(\!\!\!\right( etc. for the left.

Answer 18

pretty fricking cool!

Answer 19

that works too...

Answer 20

i guess \! creates "negative space" between things just like \, or \: creates more.

Answer 21

\huge\color{purple}{\huge {\bbox[5pt,lime,border:2px solid purple]{ TRY! }}}

COLOR COLOR COLOR
of the Font BORDER
words
\[\huge\color{purple}{\huge {\bbox[5pt,lime,border:2px solid purple]{ TRY! }}}\]

use inside equation editor.

Answer 22

you can change color of each the way you want to

Answer 23

that's cool!

Answer 24

yeah, you can underline too.

Answer 25

There,

{\huge\color {blue }{\underline{I~~~am~~~n o t~~~good~~~at~~~latex \text!}}\\ }


in equation editor,
\[{\huge\color {blue }{\underline{I~~~~am~~~~n o t~~~~good~~~~at~~~~latex \text!}}\\ }\]

Answer 26

\(\bbox[5pt,blue,border:2px solid red]{\huge\color{cyan}{\underline{I~~~~suck ~~~~at~~~~latex\text!}}\\ }\)

Answer 27

\bbox[5pt,lightgrey,border:2px solid red]{\huge\color{(•‿•) }{\underline{I~~~~am~~~~n o t~~~~good~~~~at~~~~math~~~~ \text!}}\\ }
