Incorrect spacing between function name and following "("

Sorry for the wrong explanation. I meant that generally is safer to use {} (typical case is ^ or \sqrt).

\[a^23\neq a^{23}\]

I consider the extraspace the better one too, that's why I suppose {} gets the right behavior, even in common math functions.
Anyway, if you don't like extraspace use a ...

Incorrect spacing between function name and following "("

The right use of a math function is by enclosing the arguments within {}. The following two log functions are equally spaced.

$\log{\left(3\right)}+\log{(3)}$

By writing this

$\log(3)$

you are not feeding the function with its argument...
Perhaps the following shows the difference between ...

Re: Text Book

May be you are searching for the amsmath package ftp://ftp.ams.org/pub/tex/doc/amsmath/short-math-guide.pdf

In general consider that the basic latex commands are enough powerful to create any kind of block you require. Basically, you could write your book just by means of \newtheorem and ...

ugly table

Hello,
this is probably due to a limit (or a bug) of multirow package. The multicolumn head
is too long and sub-columns fail in being distrubted evenly.
You can use hspace. The following is not a definitive solution, but works.


begin{table}[t]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{c|c|c|c}
\hline\hline ...

TexDict can be customized?

Hello,
I need a way to specify the placement of a math text inside a postscript source according to default postscript coordinates (lower-left edged) (don't ask me why?:).
At the beginning my reasoning was the following:


1) Write my text as mymath.tex
2) Get a mymath.dvi using latex
3) Get a ...

Keep heading but remove page numbering from footer

The code above removes the footer completely. If you want both footer and header and no page numbering, you can conveniently use the fancy package as follows:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy}
% your header and footer code
\fancyfoot[C]{}
