Letter types

"English" symbols and numbers

Yes, most of the English alphabet is pinched from Latin, but these 26 letters are the English alphabet.

Type	Alphabet	Numbers	Comment
Normal	$abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz$	$0123456789$
Normal	$ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ$	$0123456789$
Blackboard \mathbb{letters}	$\mathbb{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}$	$\mathbb{0123456789}$	A shame, because a black-board style $1$ would be a great indicator function
Blackboard \mathbb{letters}	$\mathbb{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$	$\mathbb{0123456789}$
Text \text{letters}	$\text{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}$	$\text{0123456789}$
Text \text{letters}	$\text{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$	$\text{0123456789}$
Script	$\mathscr{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}$	$\mathscr{0123456789}$	Remember it as "scribble" \mathscr{letter} . Some letters can be difficult to identify, for example $\mathscr{I}$ - a J right? Wrong - an I
Script	$\mathscr{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$	$\mathscr{0123456789}$
Calligraphic \mathcal{letter}	$\mathcal{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}$	$\mathcal{0123456789}$	Notice the posh numbers
Calligraphic \mathcal{letter}	$\mathcal{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$	$\mathcal{0123456789}$	Notice the posh numbers
Fraktur \mathfrak{letters}	$\mathfrak{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}$	$\mathfrak{0123456789}$	Gothic style letters, probably something German involved to get the "frak". Notice the numbers too! This font is VERY easy to bugger up, for example $\mathfrak{A}$ looks like a funky $U$ , certainly not a funky $A$ !
Fraktur \mathfrak{letters}	$\mathfrak{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$	$\mathfrak{0123456789}$
Roman \mathrm{letters}	$\mathrm{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}$	$\mathrm{0123456789}$	Pretty sure this is the same as \text above.
Roman \mathrm{letters}	$\mathrm{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$	$\mathrm{0123456789}$	Pretty sure this is the same as \text above.
Bold \mathbf{letters}	$\mathbf{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}$	$\mathbf{0123456789}$	Pretty sure it's "math bold font". Also who has ever gone "you know what, I want a bold 7" in a formula. Yet there's no blackboard-style 1. World is a crazy place.
Bold \mathbf{letters}	$\mathbf{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$	$\mathbf{0123456789}$

Extra English letters

Letter	Display	Comment
ell	$\ell$	Lowercase "l" that looks more like it does in my handwriting. Useful to distinguish $\ell^p$ , $l^p$ and $L^p$

Greek alphabet

Letter	Display	Uppercase	Display	Var-form	Display	Comment
alpha	$\alpha$					No var or upper forms

TODO: Finish, eg $\phi$ , $\Phi$ and $\varphi$ - all phi - ANOTHER ONE $\rho$ and $\varrho$ - ANOTHER ONE: $\epsilon$ and $\varepsilon$

OLD GUIDE

Maths

To get maths (LaTeX) use:

<math>Maths here</math>
[math]Maths here[/math]
{{M|Maths here}}

Diagrams

<math>\require{AMScd}
\begin{CD}
A @<a <b< B\\
@VVV @VVV\\
C @= D
\end{CD}</math>

Produces:

$\require{AMScd} \begin{CD} A @<a <b< B\\ @VVV @VVV\\ C @= D \end{CD}$

NOTE: the < were written and-sign-l-t-semicolon, see http://www.jmilne.org/not/Mamscd.pdf for reference

You can use the:

{{Extra Maths}} template

to bring the symbols in.

There are also the following templates:

[math]\begin{CD}
A {{CD Left Arrow|A|B}} B {{CD Hoz Eq|A|B}} E\\
{{CD Down Arrow|A|B}} {{CD Up Arrow|A|B}} {{CD Vert Eq|A|B}}\\
C {{CD Right Arrow|Top|Bottom}} D {{CD No Arrow}} F
\end{CD}[/math]

Produces:

$\begin{CD} A @< A <B < B @= E\\ @V A VB V @A { A }A{ B } A @|\\ C @> Top >Bottom > D @. F \end{CD}$

as follows:

Name	Parameters
Template:CD Up Arrow	2 - left, right
Template:CD Down Arrow	2 - left, right
Template:CD Left Arrow	2 - top, bottom
Template:CD Right Arrow	2 - top, bottom
Template:CD Vert Eq	(none)
Template:CD Hoz Eq	(none)
Template:CD No Arrow	(none)
