This template wraps a math expression written inTeX code between<math>...</math> tags using the{{#tag:}}parser functionmagic word.
It further helps to avoid wrapping points at either end of expression that normally occurs with<math>...</math>, so avoiding being split from punctuation as would be normal for text.
Neitherdisplay="inline" nor TeX math mode\textstyle is set by this template. Where inline formatting is desired, use{{tmath|\textstyle ...}}.
{{tmath|expression}}{{tmath|a}} gives{{tmath|\pi}} gives{{tmath|x_0}} givesThe template is intended to be used for shortLaTeX mathematical expressions like variables, and is useful for limiting awkward wrapping points. It is more cumbersome to use for equations or other expressions containing special signs that must be escaped or replaced, like the equal sign= with{{=}} and the vertical pipe| with\vert,\mid or{{!}}, and\| with\Vert:
{{tmath|E {{=}} mc^2}} gives{{tmath|x {{=}} {{!}} \vec x {{!}} }} gives{{tmath|1= x =\Vert\vec x\Vert}} givesWith{{tmath}} | With<math> |

See the difference? The punctuation stays. The block of math itself is still not amenable to line break, that we can't fix.
Apart from using the{{(}} and{{)}} templates to get{ and}, you may use the braces{ and} as long as{ is not preceded or followed by another{, and} is not preceded or followed by another}, e.g.
{{tmath|1=\zeta(2) =\frac{\pi^2}{6} }} parses (you added that space!) to{{tmath|1=\zeta(2) =\frac{\pi^2}{6}}} fails to parse (you forgot that space!), v.g.Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle \zeta(2) = \frac{\pi^2}{6}}{{tmath|\frac{1}{ x^{2n+1}} }} parses (you added all those spaces!) to{{tmath|\frac{1}{x^{2n+1 }}}} fails to parse (you forgot some of those spaces!), v.g.Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle \frac{1}{x^{2n+1} }}When converting between<math>...</math> and{{tmath|...}}, first adjusting the expression to be compatible with both can help. A guideline for such formatting is:
{{(}},{{!(}}, etc.|1= if the formula contains an equals sign (=). This removes the need to use the magic word{{=}}.| by\vert or\mid, and\| by\Vert. This is clearer than using the magic word{{!}} since it doesn't mix wiki markup with TeX.{{ by{ { and}} by} }.} will adjoin the closing braces of the{{tmath|...}}.display="inline" parameter with a leading\textstyle.<math>...</math> and a template{{tmath|1=...}}. Any text, such as punctuation, that does not naturally form part of the expression should be moved out of the{{tmath|...}}.Math templates | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
