Jupyter Notebook Markdown

Jupyter Book uses MathJax for typesetting math in your HTML book build.This allows you to have LaTeX-style mathematics in your online content.This page shows you a few ways to control this.

Because jupyter notebook markdown cell is a superset of HTML. Note that newlines using does not persist when exporting or saving the notebook to a pdf (using 'Download as PDF via LaTeX'). It is probably treating each as a space. Jupyter Notebook (formerly IPython Notebook) is a web-based interactive computational environment for creating Jupyter notebook documents. Markdown is a light weight and popular Markup language which is a writing standard for data scientists and analysts.

In-line math¶

To insert in-line math use the $ symbol within a Markdown cell.For example, the text $this_{is}^{inline}$ will produce: (this_{is}^{inline}).

Math blocks¶

You can also include math blocks for separate equations. This allows you to focus attentionon more complex or longer equations, as well as link to them in your pages. To use a blockequation, wrap the equation in either $$ or begin statements.

For example,

results in:

[ int_0^infty frac{x^3}{e^x-1},dx = frac{pi^4}{15}]

Latex-style math¶

You can enable parsing LaTeX-style math blocks with the amsmath MyST extension. Enable it by adding the following to _config.yml

Once enabled, you can define math blocks like so:

which results in:

[begin{gather*}a_1=b_1+c_1a_2=b_2+c_2-d_2+e_2end{gather*}]

(2)¶[begin{align}a_{11}& =b_{11}& a_{12}& =b_{12}a_{21}& =b_{21}& a_{22}& =b_{22}+c_{22}end{align}]

Numbering equations¶

If you’d like to number equations so that you can refer to them later, use the math directive.It looks like this:

Jupyter Notebook Markdown Cheatsheet

For example, the following code:

will generate

Jupyter Notebook Markdown $

(3)¶[w_{t+1} = (1 + r_{t+1}) s(w_t) + y_{t+1}]

Alternatively you can use the dollar math syntax with a prefixed label:

which generates

(4)¶[ w_{t+1} = (1 + r_{t+1}) s(w_t) + y_{t+1}]

Jupyter Notebook Markdown Language

Note

Labels cannot start with an integer, or they won’t be able to be referenced andwill throw a warning message if referenced. For example, :label:1 and :label:1eq cannotbe referenced.

Linking to equations¶

If you have created an equation with a label, you can link to it from within your text(and across pages!).

You can refer to the equation using the label that you’ve provided by usingthe {eq} role. For example:

results in

A link to an equation directive: (3)
A link to a dollar math block: (4)
