Textual Equation Markup
The CVRG wiki has been enabled with a plugin to allow for equations to be rendered using standard equation markup language.
A simple equation which renders using html...
<math>\alpha^2+\beta^2=1</math> outputs as...
α2 + β2 = 1
Some more complex examples which render using TeX...
<math>\sqrt{1-e^2}</math> outputs as...
<math>\alpha\,\!</math> outputs as...
<math>\dfrac{2}{4} = 0.5 \qquad \dfrac{2}{c + \dfrac{2}{d + \dfrac{2}{4}}} = a</math> outputs as...
Some special mathematical characters which render using html...
∫ ∑ ∏ √ − ± ∞
α β γ δ ε ζ η θ ι κ λ μ ν ξ ο π ρ σ ς τ υ φ χ ψ ω Γ Δ Θ Λ Ξ Π Σ Φ Ψ Ω
More Documentation
Many more examples and links to authoritative documentation on the issue are available below.
Link to TeX markup in Wikipedia
The case for using this as the standard for our documentation is strengthened by the fact that the complex equations which render as images created by the TeX markup have the text markup added to the 'alt' tag, which will aid those using screen readers.
