Template:Mathfont

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

The {{mathfont}} mathematical formatting template is intended for HTML+CSS typesetting (where you can’t [or don’t want to] use LaTeX) of very simple mathematical expressions/numbers within:

• a section label,
• the label (not the link itself) of a wikilink, or
• the label (not the link itself) of an external link, or
• mathematical numbers (NOT for dates, times, chapters, book sections, pages, ...).

Usage

{{mathfont}}

or

{{mathfont|size}}

where the optional second argument (size) is font-size (defaults to 1.15em, i.e. relative to parent element).

Examples of section labels

For many more examples of section labels, see π. (This happens to be an example of wikilink label: : ''For many more examples of section labels, see ''[[pi|{{mathfont|{{Gr|pi}}}}]]''.''.)

The code

=== Variable {{mathfont|''n''}} ===

yields

Variable n

The variable

n

in the above section label is typeset in the math font (the link in the table of contents works properly).

Examples of link labels

The code [[Prime factors of n (with multiplicity)|Prime factors of {{mathfont|''n''}} (with multiplicity)]] yields the wikilink

Prime factors of n (with multiplicity)

The code [https://www.math.upenn.edu/~deturck/m170/wk2/numdivisors.html Finding the number of divisors of {{mathfont|''n''}}] yields the external link

Examples of captions

Apart from the trivial zeros (even negative integers), the Riemann zeta function doesn’t have any zero outside the critical strip 0 < σ < 1 delimited by the lines σ = 0 and σ = 1 (neither can the zeros lie “too close” to those lines). Furthermore, the non-trivial zeros are symmetric about the real axis and the critical line σ = 1/2 and according to the Riemann Hypothesis, they all lie on the line σ = 1/2.

The image (with caption) shown on the right, is given by (to avoid disturbing the line spacings of small font size captions, 1.1em is better than the default 1.15em)
