Latex and simpleFunction

Questions
1

Can I enter a Latex expression directly into the simpleFunction argument or must I use another input source? If so, do I use standard LateX math mode($$)?

You can feed simpleFunction a latex string like…

function("f"): simpleFunction("x^2")

Note that if you do this, you may need to use \\ in certain places where you would normally just use \ (see example below)

function("f"): simpleFunction("\\max\\left(5,7,\\frac{1}{2}\\right)")

If you’re unsure about how to structure your latex you can always type your expression into the Desmos calculator and then simply copy/paste that into CL. (Again your may have to replace single backslashes with doubles)

Let me know if that doesn’t answer your question or doesn’t make any sense.

That is very helpful, thanks. I’ll try it out.
