See the equation above? Here is how it came into being.
Browing through Ganesh Swami’s blog (after having discovered that he was quite slyly blogging in secret), I discovered something that I have always thought would be useful — a LaTeX plugin for Wordpress.
Now, I have known about mimeTeX, which is basically a CGI tool to embed LaTeX in webpages. However, I had never really thought of using it because it was too cumbersome. I would have had to use an IMG tag to render it using CGI, and that is not particularly pleasant.
However, LatexRender is a Wordpress plugin that lets you do just this. It uses mimeTeX to render the equations, which you can use in your posts.
