Forum Features!

1. LaTeX Equations

This forum supports \LaTeX equations between $dollar signs$. The default LaTeX style is the “inline” style which looks like \sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k} = 2^n , in text this is

$ \sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k} = 2^n $

However, if you start your equation with $$ on it’s own beginning and teminating line like,

$$
\sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k} = 2^n
$$

it looks like this

\sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k} = 2^n

2. Graphviz diagrams

See the documentation for a list of examples to build your graph.

[graphviz engine=dot]
digraph {
  concentrate=true;
  a[color=red, style=filled, fillcolor=pink];
  b[shape=diamond];
  a -> b;
  b -> c;
  c -> a;
  d -> c;
  e -> c;
  e -> a;
  a -> e;
}
[/graphviz]
a a b b a->b e e a->e c c b->c c->a d d d->c e->c

3. YUML diagrams

YUML diagrams allow making nice little graphs within your posts.

They have an idiosyncratic but fairly simple markup language.

Example:

[yuml]
[foo{bg:cornsilk}]--[baz]
[foo]->[bar{bg:orange}]
[baz]-.->[qux]
[qux]--label>[bar]
[/yuml]
[yuml]
[Vote Message|+Source hash;-Source height;+Target hash;-Target height|+Withdraw();+Last_commit]
[/yuml]

4. Images!

Unsurprisingly, we also support images.
