`displayFormula`

Displays a symbolic formula given as text.

Category: Mathematics > Formula Manipulation and Simplification

Syntax

displayFormula(str)

Parses the text str as a symbolic expression and displays it.

Description

In live scripts the formula appears in typeset mathematical form, which makes long expressions easier to read than the one-line text output. Nothing is returned. Each element of a string array is shown as a separate formula.

The argument is text, so the variables in it do not need to exist in the workspace.

Input arguments

str: String or string array with one expression per element, for example "x^2 + 1".

Example

Show an expression

displayFormula("x^2 + 1")
displayFormula(["x == 1"; "y^2"])

Output

x^2 + 1
x == 1
y^2

Notes

MatLivre prints the parsed expression as plain text instead of typeset mathematics, and does not take extra name-value arguments.
