LaTeX commands are case-sensitive, and take one of the following two formats: They start with a backslash \ and then have a name consisting of letters only. Command names are terminated by a space, a number or any other "non-letter" character. They consist of a backslash \ and exactly one non-letter.
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.
The first cell in each row gives a symbol; The second is a link to the article that details that symbol, using its Unicode standard name or common alias. (Holding the mouse pointer on the hyperlink will pop up a summary of the symbol's function.);
In LaTeX text mode the math method above is inappropriate, as letters will be in math italic, so the command n\textsuperscript{th} will give n th and A\textsubscript{base} will give A base (textual subscripts are rare, so \textsubscript is not built-in, but requires the fixltx2e package). As in other systems, when using UTF-8 encoding, the ...
Shaded cells mark small capitals that are not very distinct from minuscules, and Greek letters that are indistinguishable from Latin, and so would not be expected to be supported by Unicode. Little punctuation is encoded. Parentheses are shown above in the basic block above, and the exclamation mark ꜝ is shown
The template is meant to be used with alphabetic text, typically one or a few capital letters. If the body contains an exposed equals-sign ("="), it will fail to render. For example, the following template use produces no result: {{mathcal|P=NP}}. There are two ways to resolve this. Method 1: Start the body with "1=", as in: {{mathcal|1=P=NP}},
In the table below, the column "ISO 8859-1" shows how the file signature appears when interpreted as text in the common ISO 8859-1 encoding, with unprintable characters represented as the control code abbreviation or symbol, or codepage 1252 character where available, or a box otherwise. In some cases the space character is shown as ␠.
