Render inline math with Discourse Math

[trigophi]

Support for rendering inline math expressions has been available for Discourse forums.

Discourse Math

Being able to express oneself mathematically would be a useful feature for explaining concepts on the DevForum that require use of mathematical representations otherwise less readable when displayed in plaintext.

Right now, I can think of someone trying to explain properties of matrix operations for CFrames.. without visually displaying matrices..

Comprehensive Beginner's Guide to CFrames and How to Use Them [CFrame Guide]

Here is a beginners guide to understanding and using CFrames. CFrames are super important and useful for any form of positioning and orienting of things in the workspace, so I hope this will help you with things like camera manipulation, even if you aren’t too good with the math involved. Coordinate Frames CFrame stands for ‘Coordinate Frame’, and this is a mathematical tool we use whenever we want to specify how something is positioned in space. A coordinate frame is made up of a point in spa…

So, users have had to hand-write, use tables, or import images of the typeset expressions to display this information:

• Understanding CFrame with Matrices!
• An outline technique with variable thickness for 3D models
• Modeling a projectile's motion

I’m sure there are more examples where being able to render mathematical objects properly would help with explanation consistency among DevForum math explainers.

PLEASE, I tried to write this simple identity on a question, and it was PAINFUL,

Typesetting is very useful when we’re trying to explain concepts in maths.
