# MathJax Support
|
|
|
|
mdBook has optional support for math equations through [MathJax](https://www.mathjax.org/).
|
|
|
|
To enable MathJax, you need to add the `mathjax-support` key to your `book.toml` under the `output.html` section.
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[output.html]
|
|
mathjax-support = true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
>**Note:**
|
|
The usual delimiters MathJax uses are not yet supported. You can't currently use `$$ ... $$` as delimiters and the `\[ ... \]` delimiters need an extra backslash to work. Hopefully this limitation will be lifted soon.
|
|
|
|
### Inline equations
|
|
Inline equations are delimited by `\\(` and `\\)`. So for example, to render the following inline equation \\( \int x dx = \frac{x^2}{2} + C \\) you would write the following:
|
|
```
|
|
\\( \int x dx = \frac{x^2}{2} + C \\)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Block equations
|
|
Block equations are delimited by `\\[` and `\\]`. To render the following equation
|
|
|
|
\\[ \mu = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=0} x_i \\]
|
|
|
|
|
|
you would write:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
\\[ \mu = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=0} x_i \\]
|
|
```
