For example, \text {ð} and \text {þ} (used in Icelandic) will give errors. The normal way of entering quotation marks in text mode (two back ticks for the left and two apostrophes for the right), such as \text { a ``quoted'' word } will not work correctly.
A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various types, many symbols are needed for ...
Popular languages for input by humans and interpretation by computers include TeX [1] /LaTeX [2] and eqn. [3] Computer algebra systems such as Macsyma, Mathematica (Wolfram Language), Maple, and MATLAB each have their own syntax. When the purpose is informal communication with other humans, syntax is often ad hoc, sometimes called "ASCII math ...
Some variants of X-bar notation use a double-bar (or double-prime) to represent phrasal-level units. X-bar theory derives its name from the overbar. One of the core proposals of the theory was the creation of an intermediate syntactic node between phrasal (XP) and unit (X) levels; rather than introduce a different label, the intermediate unit ...
The following table lists many common symbols, together with their name, how they should be read out loud, and the related field of mathematics. Additionally, the subsequent columns contains an informal explanation, a short example, the Unicode location, the name for use in HTML documents, [1] and the LaTeX symbol.
Deutsch: Dieses Dokument listet 20323 Symbole und die dazugehörigen LaTeX-Befehle auf. Manche Symbole sind in jedem LaTeX-2ε-System verfügbar; andere benötigen zusätzliche Schriftarten oder Pakete, die nicht notwendig in jeder Distribution mitgeliefert werden und daher selbst installiert werden müssen.
The bar was intended to be used as the representation for the logical OR symbol. [9] A subsequent draft on May 12, 1966, places the vertical bar in column 7 alongside regional entry codepoints, and formed the basis for the original draft proposal used by the International Standards Organisation .

The default sans-serif may render certain characters indistinguishable, such as 1, I and l. In articles mixing raw wiki with <math> formulae, the appearance of the same variable in the two types of formula does not match (serif vs sans-serif). {} ('texhtml' class) Distinguishes a formula from the running text.
