Hi,
I would like to have a mathematical equation typeset in latex and
automatically generated by sympy, embedded in an equation environment:
#+NAME: mass-energy
#+BEGIN_SRC python :results raw :exports results :wrap EQUATION
import sympy as sp
E, m, c = sp.symbols('E, m, c', real=True, positive=True)
E = m*c**2
return sp.latex(E)
#+END_SRC
#+NAME: eq:1
#+RESULTS: mass-energy
#+BEGIN_EQUATION
c^{2} m
#+END_EQUATION
The problem I'm facing is that despite the fact that the equation is
already in a mathematical mode latex environment, it still gets sub- and
superscripts surrounded by a $ sign. Here is the generated latex snippet:
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:1}
c$^{\text{2}}$ m
\end{equation}
Is there a way to teach org-mode not to insert $ signs in equation
environments?
Thanks,
Fede

So by default it tries to produce text. I would change your code to: #+NAME: mass-energy #+BEGIN_SRC python :results raw :exports results :wrap LaTeX import sympy as sp E, m, c = sp.symbols('E, m, c', real=True, positive=True) E = m*c**2 return "\\begin{equation}\n" + str(sp.latex(E)) + "\n\\end{equation}\n" #+END_SRC which produces: #+RESULTS: mass-energy #+BEGIN_LaTeX \begin{equation} c^{2} m \end{equation} #+END_LaTeX and gets exported to LaTeX as an equation. In fact if you use it often, you could make a function in python: #+NAME: mass-energy #+BEGIN_SRC python :results raw :exports results :wrap LaTeX import sympy as sp def org_equation(the_equation): return "\\begin{equation}\n" + str(sp.latex(the_equation)) + "\n\\end{equation}\n" E, m, c = sp.symbols('E, m, c', real=True, positive=True) E = m*c**2 return org_equation(E) #+END_SRC Best, Jorge. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

The reason that made me try :wrap EQUATION instead of :wrap LaTeX is that the former still produces an output even with other back-ends, while the latter only produces an output with LaTeX and nothing with other back-ends. If org-mode does not recognize math environments and always surrounds sub- and superscripts with $ signs with no way to stop this, then it essentially stops people from using numbered equations and still preserving the capability to export in multiple formats. Org-mode is great, but I find that this sounds as problematic for people writing texts including a lot of mathematical expressions. I guess I will have to dig into filters.

Is there a reason you are not using a mode argument like this: #+NAME: mass-energy #+BEGIN_SRC python :results raw :exports results :post import sympy as sp E, m, c = sp.symbols('E, m, c', real=True, positive=True) E = m*c**2 return sp.latex(E, mode="inline") #+END_SRC #+RESULTS: mass-energy $c^{2} m$ Alternatively, if you need to combine stuff you could use the post argument #+name: wrapper #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var x="" (format "\\(%s\\)" x) #+END_SRC #+NAME: mass-energy #+BEGIN_SRC python :results raw :exports results :post wrapper(x=*this*) import sympy as sp E, m, c = sp.symbols('E, m, c', real=True, positive=True) E = m*c**2 return sp.latex(E) #+END_SRC #+RESULTS: mass-energy \(c^{2} m\) —Rasmus -- El Rey ha muerto. ¡Larga vida al Rey! ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

This is not possibly with unnumbered math environments ($$, ...).
