Re: binomial

Hi thickhead,

You can write sentences a bit more easily in LaTeX if you use \text{}, e.g.

\text{For a term to be independent of $x$}

produces

Re: binomial

Thank you. I was sometimes trying \mbox  but \text may be better. but why $x$ ?

Re: binomial

So that you can include the variable x in the text brackets, without having to open and close multiple \text{}. For instance:

\text{a quadratic equation} x^2 + ax + b = 0 \text{has at most two roots}

produces the same thing as

\text{a quadratic equation $x^2 + ax + b = 0$ has at most two roots}
