Special Cases
Matrices: [[a,b],[c,d]] yields to [abcd][abcd]
Column vectors: ((a),(b)) yields to (ab)(ab)
Matrices can be used for layout: {(2x,+,17y,=,23),
(x,-,y,=,5):} yields {2x+17y=23x−y=5{2x+17y=23x-y=5
Complex subscripts: lim_(N->oo) sum_(i=0)^N yields to limN→∞N∑i=0limN→∞∑i=0N
Subscripts must come before superscripts: int_0^1 f(x)dx yields to ∫10f(x)dx∫01f(x)dx
Derivatives: f'(x) = dy/dx yields f'(x)=dydxf′(x)=dydx
For variables other than x,y,z, or t you will need grouping symbols: (dq)/(dp) for dqdpdqdp
Overbraces and underbraces: ubrace(1+2+3+4)_("4
terms") yields 1+2+3+44 terms1+2+3+4⏟4 terms.

Attention: Always try to surround the > and < characters with spaces so that the html parser does not
confuse it with an opening or closing tag!

The Grammar
Here is a definition of the grammar used to parse AsciiMath expressions. In the Backus-Naur form given
below, the letter on the left of the ::= represents a category of symbols that could be one of the possible
sequences of symbols listed on the right. The vertical bar | separates the alternatives.
v ::= [A-Za-z] | greek letters | numbers | other constant symbols
u ::= sqrt | text | bb | other unary symbols for font commands
b ::= frac | root | stackrel | other binary symbols
l ::= ( | [ | { | (: | {: | other left brackets
r ::= ) | ] | } | :) | :} | other right brackets
S ::= v | lEr | uS | bSS Simple expression
I ::= S_S | S^S | S_S^S | S Intermediate expression
E ::= IE | I/I Expression
