The following information is helpful for typesetting Distributome mathematical symbols, formulas and expressions using MathJax.

Note that the Distributome Wiki pages accept both the standard Wiki Math-type formatting. For example:
- Standard MediaWiki LaTeX format: <_math> \int_{\pi}^{\infty}{\ln (x) dx}\<_/math>, would generate this: $\int_{\pi}^{\infty}{\ln (x) dx}$ , and
- MathJax-based math typography: $ \int_{\pi}^{\infty}{\ln (x) dx} $ , would generate this: $ \int_{\pi}^{\infty}{\ln (x) dx} $.

For hidden fields (e.g., see Distributome activities) you need to use the following alternatives as analogues of commonly used TeX/LaTeX syntax (as the JavaScript code behind the MathJax and the Hidden-answers plug-ins are incompatible):
- For equal-sign "=", use the \equiv symbol
- For vertical bar "|", use \vert symbol
- There may be other LaTeX/TeX alternative symbols that may need to be used for MathJax math typesetting in hidden fields!
