Really, this doesn't help for the reasons I've already discussed.

Google is your friend. TeX is easiest to learn one step at a time.

you can start a new thread with tex commands if you want.

found a link to a large set of the math symbols god how do you keep them apart lol seems like millions lol.

I think this forum has this formula.

crank $\equiv$ thinker but, $\therefore$ mathematician $\equiv$ crank + action

You learn them one at a time, forgetting most of what you learn but keeping what you use most often.

Any person who doesn't get frustrated with TeX every now and then either (1) doesn't use it much, or (2) is named Don Knuth.

bet you can even code that in TeX lol

myself outside of the Greek letters I'm almost lost on most of their meanings lol.

I like I know $\sum$ but as I've proved I wouldn't understand all the notation around it anyone care to help in this regard ?

though I've heard of integrals I've never taken calculus so I had no idea what they mean't until I just looked it up.

figured out some of it by looking at Wikipedia wow math is hard to read no wonder people read the worded version more than the equations (though this is a problem that creates misunderstandings between higher and lower mathematicians etc., anyone on this forum knows that,) lol.

No! Equations are 'easier' to understand because words can interpreted in different ways, especially the person who tries to explain something with his own words but another person even understand something totally different!

until a second ago by looking on Wikipedia about pi I didn't know what all the symbols around $\sum$ mean't.

since I know how to word the formula they talked about I now understand it.

still can't TeX code it though.
