Hi
to be displayed ok , i need to double anti-slash is it normal ?
show(LatexExpr(" \\frac{x}{\cos(x)}"))Sorry I forgot to precise !: notebook jupyter , Sagemath 8.3 in W10 OS.
Yes, that's normal: the backslash character in a string is interpreted as an escape character for special commands; for instance \f in \frac stands for an ASCII formfeed. To avoid this and restore the standard LaTeX interpretation one has to type a double backslash, as you did. An alternative is to prefix the string with r (for "raw" string):
show(LatexExpr(r"\frac{x}{\cos(x)}"))thanks eric_g
