2. Features¶
2.1. Extensions¶
2.1.1. Mathematical symbols¶
Mathematical symbols are written using a LaTeX syntax and display using MathJax. Either inline \(e^{\cos(x)}\) or as equations
\[\frac{d}{dz} \cos(z) = \sum_{n\in \mathbb N} \frac {d}{dz}\, \frac{(-1)^n}{(2n)!} z^{2n}
= \sum_{n\geq 1} \frac{(-1)^n}{(2n-1)!}z^{2n-1} = -\sin(z)\]
2.1.2. Links¶
It is possible to link to every section, which is useful when making solutions, in emails and on Piazza.
2.1.3. Geogebra¶
Geogebra (http://geogebra.org) is an excellent program to make interactive (and good looking) applets which can be embedded.
2.1.4. Sage¶
Sage can be used to put in applets written in Sage, Python, Octave, R, etc. The code can be hidden or shown, which then enables students to play with it.
2.2. Other¶
- Index.
- (Icelandic) translations of mathematical can be shown,
for example heiltalaen: integer.
