Template:Greek

The following documentation is located at Template:Greek/doc. [<Edit> Template:Greek/doc]
[⧼Purge⧽ Template:Greek]

The {{Greek}} typing-aid template returns either the HTML glyph (default), the UTF-16 hex code, the LaTeX code or the alphabetical index.

Usage

{{Greek|letter name or letter index}}

or

{{Greek|letter name or letter index|format}}

where letter name is among

• (see examples)

or letter index is among (where 0.1 is added for letter variants; 0.5 is added for the insertion of an archaic letter, e.g. digamma, between common letters)

• 1 to 24 (for lowercase)
• 25 to 48 (for uppercase)

and format is among (case insensitive)

• htm (default);
• hex;
• tex;
• # (for index).

Examples

Lowercase Greek letters

Note: LaTeX italicizes lowercase Greek letters (except for lambda, pi and chi, apparently), as well as lowercase Latin letters, by default (since taken as identifiers).
