This is my first time using R so this is about as basic of a question as they come.
I am making a presentation using markdown (ioslides). I want to do something very simple which is to put something in superscript. According to the manual, the syntax is the following:
Lower bound = α^Full – K^ - α^Full^
The first time I tried running this, I got a pop-up screen with some options. Too quickly, I pressed enter and inadvertently chose something. Now the syntax won't run and I can't figure out what I did to undo it.
Can someone help? Thank you in advance.
Markdown allows HTML to be used if necessary, so you should be able to use the HTML sup tag.

it's been a few days that im trying to run my Rmd on Kaggle, but it simply doesn't work.
The main reason (I guess) is that, somehow the console is reading the code as an R code, but im sure that I'm using Rmarkdown.
Therefore, the console reads a Text line as a code line, giving me the code error below:
Also, i tried to copy and edit other's people markdown, but i keep getting the same error line.
You can check my code here: https://www.kaggle.com/badluckmath/kernel4c85aae59c/edit/run/39891200
He's working perfectly on my Rstudio.
I'm looking for a huge help here, please!
I've been stuck with this for a week!
If i press the buttom to run code, it will simply give me this error message.
For that, i still don't know the solution. But since this is a premade Rmarkdown and i knew that it works, i simple used the Save (Commit) options and at the end, it worked.
I have been using WxMaxima for my symbolic calculations for a while now. The good thing about WxMaxima is that you can get formatted outputs right in the program and then export them to LaTeX format with a click of the mouse.
Now I want to try the Jupyter/Ipython plus sympy for multiple reasons. I know how to use display(Math(r' some LaTeX math here ')) but what I want is to have the result/output of a cell in a nice mathematical form; something like the TraditionalForm[] command in Mathematica.
I would appreciate if you could help me know if/how I can get that right in a Jupyter notebook?
I think I found the proper solution and it is a sympy feature rather than Jupyter/IPython one. As explained here:
If all you want is the best pretty printing, use the init_printing() function. This will automatically enable the best printer available in your environment.
and
In the [Jupyter/]IPython notebook, it will use MathJax to render LATEX.
Then one can right click on the output and select Show Math As > Tex commands:
to get the LaTeX output.
P.S. A more proper formatting can be achieved via galgebra library. I will look into that and add it here later.
I have searched on this for quite some time and am unable to find an answer after which I've turned to you folks. I am working with the Atom IDE and my query is very simple - I would like to have to vertical faint lines which run from beginning of a code block to its end which improves code readability. I've made several searches on google for an answer to this but am unable to get a solution.
I don't want to fold the code. I just want those awesome lines.

Thank you in advance.
Go to settings and check "show indent guide".
You may also try to install package "indent-guide-improved".
I'm writing all my scripts on .R file using R for mac. It is convenient to me because there are colors to highlight the type of commands.
I have a many comments following the # symbol that are useful when I forget about the meaning of my script but they tend to blur my script so that it gets harder to find a given command line.
Is there a way to hide and show these comments ? (Using the programm I'm currently using or another one). What would you suggest as the best program to write R script ?
Thanks a lot !
RStudio supports code folding. You can standardize your comment blocks so that they are recognized as code blocks.
For example, enter this into your RStudio editor
#=======================================================
# this is a comment block
# more comments here
# comments upon comments
and then press Alt+L to fold, and Alt+Shift+L to unfold.
Try RStudio for mac. One of the greatest code writing environment for R there is.
You can also try Emacs, which is more like old-fashioned command line editor. You can find a good guide here.
As I am using Mathematica a lot I got the idea to write a small and free CAS which just exposes a very small subset of necessary functions and packages to be used and I want to present the results in an appropriate way to the user like Mathematica does (ignore the Facebook logo in the background :D ):
My first idea was to create LaTeX code in the background and to pdflatex the source and include the PDF then in the view... however this seems way to much overkill! I want to write this CAS either in C++ or C# and I want to know if there are any recommended solutions to output nice formula like that.
My first thought was a "real-time formula editing view" but it would be ok to have an input box to enter the commands and formulas and the upper view just to be uneditable output.
A few ways come to my mind.
Use LaTeX behind the scenes to typeset equations, as you say. Again, Cadabra does this.
Use TeXmacs as the front end. Cadabra does this.
Use MathJax. This is a javascript framework which renders TeX equations to images or MathML. It's very easy to use it if you have a HTML view in your UI toolkit. MathJax is used in the sister site MathOverflow, for example.
I find the route 3 is the most attractive.
For calling LaTeX in the background, don't use pdflatex, but use the non-PDF latex to produce a DVI file, and convert it then to PNG with dvipng.
Have a look at the preview package or the standalone class to get the output in the right size (i.e. only the formula, not a whole page).
