Does Math like $f (x) = e^{- x}$ work on askbot?

let's try:

$\mathcal{M}[f] (s) = \int_0^{\infty} x^{s - 1} f (x) dx .$

$\mathcal{M} \left[ \frac{d}{d x} f (x) \right] = - (s - 1) F (s - 1),\quad \mathcal{M} \left[ x^{\mu} f (x) \right] = F (s + \mu) .$

$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1} C_kx^k\equiv \frac{1-(1-4x)^{(p+1)/2}}{2x}-x^{p-1}\quad\bmod (p,x^p).$

Give it a try - post some "answers" and see how it works for you.

edit: here are instructions to enable MathJax.

There is a caveat - if you right-click and choose some setting - django may sign you out. It's due to the bug in python Cookie module or MathJax cookie name. MathJax wants to set up cookie named mjx:menu, but python does not like : in the name. I have found the place in MathJax where that character can be replaced with say -, but rebuilding MathJax is not trivial - not all build scripts are present in the repository.

If the site "kicks you out" this way - delete cookie for askbot.org named as above and re-signin.

This issue in MathJax will hopefully be solved very soon.
