Code files The following code file is required to practice this tutorial: 1. breqn-eg.tex |
The following code file is required to practice this tutorial.
This file is provided in the Code Files link of this tutorial page. |
| Let us get started. | |
| Highlight:
\usepackage{breqn} |
This command imports the break equation package.
It helps to automatically break long equations into multiple lines. |
| Highlight:
Lines 13 to 23 |
Note the long equation. |
| Highlight:
\begin{equation} \end{equation} Click the green Typeset button and show the output. Place the cursor on the output. |
We used \begin{equation} and \end{equation} to display the equation.
Click the green Typeset button to run the code. Here is the output. Observe that the equation is not properly aligned as per the margin. |
| Comment line number 13 and 23.
Uncomment line number 14 and 22. Click the green Typeset button to run the code. Place the cursor on the output. Highlight: \begin{dmath} \end{dmath} |
Let us comment line number 13 and 23 and uncomment line number 14 and 22.
Let’s run the code. Observe that the equation breaks into 3 lines. The dmath environment from breqn breaks the equation into lines and numbers it. |
| Highlight:
\left[ at line 16 starting and \right] at line 20 ending |
The \left and \right commands adjust de-limiter size to fit the enclosed content.
They automatically resize parentheses, brackets, and other delimiters. Notice that the manual line break command \\ is not used. |
| Comment lines 14 and 22
Uncomment lines 15 and 21 Click the green Typeset button |
Let’s comment line number 14 and 22.
And uncomment line number 15 and 21. Let’s run the code. Here again the equation breaks into 3 lines. The dmath* environment from break equation breaks the equation. It does not display the equation number. |
