How to write math
You can just type LaTeX formulas between dollar signs! There are some occasional strange behaviors: see the FAQ and this meta.MO thread for details. Basic solution: if you're having problems with the preview (or the post looks wrong), put backticks around any math that contains underscores or asterisks. E.g. write `$f'_n=g_{n+1}$`.
Formatting Reference
indent code by 4 spaces
don't want colorization? Use <pre>
to linebreak use 2 spaces at end
> blockquote
backtick escapes `like _this_`
<http://foo.com>
[foo](http://foo.com)
<a href="http://foo.com">foo</a>
basic HTML also allowed
