Math is a formula editor. This means that you can use it to create (typeset) formulas to include in, for example, your word processing documents. If you are using Windows they can also be created as OLE objects. Math is _not_ a calculation program or anything like that. The only thing you primarily do with it is entering a formula in order for it to be displayed nicely, e.g. sum_{i=0}^{10} i^2 = 385 will be displayed as (this will not show up correctly if you are using a proportional font) 10 -- \ 2 / i = 385 -- i = 0 ( a nice image should go here instead ) all in the correct font sizes and proportions. |
