Skabelon:Mvar/doc

Fra Wikipedia, den frie encyklopædi

The mvar template makes the argument italic and formats as mathematics. It is used to refer to individual variables in normal running text. It should not be used within a {{math}} template.

Note that digits in a variable name are conventionally not italic so {{math}} should be used instead in for example {{math|''x''<sub>1</sub>}} to produce x1. Functions and variables made up of multiple letters are conventionally set in upright letters so {{math}} should be used in that case too; for example {{math|cos}} to produce cos.

For example:

Let {{mvar|x}} be the maximum value used.

produces:

Let x be the maximum value used.

  • {{math}} which formats its argument as mathematics
  • {{bigmath}}, the same as {{math}} but makes it bigger
  • {{tmath}} wraps a TeX math expression in <math> tags
