Inserting Formulas
This is to address students not know how to put formulas into their wiki pages. MediaWiki uses a markup language based on Latex to produce it's mathematical equations. Anything that goes between the <math> </math> tags will be rendered as mathematical equations. All the symbols needed to produce the desired equations can be found at the following site.
- Using Latex in Rhea
- Comprehensive list of LaTeX commands (Note that some commands in the manual do not work within Rhea, but most do.)
Another handy way to learn how to write a math equation is to go to the real Wikipedia and find a good math article that has a bunch of formulas and just click "view source" or "edit".
