Re: Behold the math

I am truly envious of your beautiful and sexy LaTeX. *burning ... rage ... passing*

How did you go about plugging it in? Is this the system you are using? With the editor?

Does your system cache the images or generate them fresh every time they are called?

Re: Behold the math

Yes, that's the system I'm using.  The system does cache the images as well.

My server already had dvips and such installed, I just had to install the PHP scripts and such for the editor and renderer.

I still haven't integrated it to the extent that I want to.  I'd like to be able to use a WYSIWYG editor with an equation button.  Behind the scenes I have an FCK Editor plugin for Wordpress installed, but getting all this to work is kind of a headache.  Ultimately I think I'd like a little WYSIWYG editor for the comments as well so people can do their own equations.

Re: Behold the math

What did you use to create your diagram?

Re: Behold the math

I created that in Mathematica.  Whenever you see diagrams, they were created with Mathematica.  They're also rarely schematic diagrams, either.  For example, that diagram actually has the exact lens solution for an index of refraction of (I think) 1.5.

Re: Behold the math

Very impressive! You're studying engineering at U of I, am I right? I'm also studying engineering (at Purdue), but I've barely begun.
I'm not bad at math, but it looks like I'll need to brush up on it if I'm to keep up!
