I just realized that I am a barbarian when it comes to writing. But I am not entirely sure, so this might be the right place to ask. When typing display-mode formulae do you guys add a period after the formula ends a sentence?
Like:
This is the formula for a circle
$x^2 + y^2 = r^2.$
Therefore blabla...
or
This is the formula for a circle
$x^2 + y^2 = r^2$
Therefore blabla...
My supervisor has been complaining a lot that I don't use period and commas in my display-mode formulae. But I get uneasy doing that because it doesn't feel natural to me, I took a look at two books at random and both of them so far do the punctuation in their display formulae.. I know this is stupid of me and its amazing I have never noticed that.
