Apr 23, 2023 at 12:06 comment added Тyma Gaidash There is the \rm command instead of the entire code in \text
May 14, 2022 at 16:50 comment added Тyma Gaidash @MJD Is there any command for a vertical line, like \hline ? The {cc|c} part in the array code is confusing.

Dec 12, 2016 at 16:41 comment added GNUSupporter 8964民主女神 地下教會 Center Aligned Table Captions with Left Aligned Contents \begin{array}{ll} \hfill\mathrm{Bad}\hfill & \hfill\mathrm{Better}\hfill \\ \hline \\ e^{i\frac{\pi}2} \quad e^{\frac{i\pi}2}& e^{i\pi/2} \\ \int_{-\frac\pi2}^\frac\pi2 \sin x\,dx & \int_{-\pi/2}^{\pi/2}\sin x\,dx \\ \end{array}
Dec 3, 2014 at 15:55 comment added user147263 @IncnisMrsi What kind of pressure could we apply: bribery, threats, kidnapping? A feature request was made, supported by SE communities, and declined by SE (on technical grounds, as they say). At least we have the MathJax workaround, with all of its flaws: SO and others have nothing.
Dec 3, 2014 at 12:11 comment added Incnis Mrsi @Rahul: why did regulars not press developers to enhance HTML formatting instead of doing inconvenient and resource-devouring detours through MathJax? When a table contains (mostly) formulæ, the use of a formula-formatting engine looks determined. But when one wants just a table, why should it run software with completely different purpose? I once tried to speak about it at meta.SE, but was gagged.

Spelling (e.g. ref. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MathJax>). Expansion.
Aug 26, 2013 at 9:16 comment added Gottfried Helms It should perhaps be mentioned, that in nested arrays there seems to be no option to synchronize column-widths and/or row-heights over the top-level. I didn't find a solution such that if two arrays are stacked vertically one could make their column-widths matching/fit.
Mar 28, 2013 at 17:39 comment added robjohn Mod @exploringnet: on my keyboard, it is the shifted backslash. It may be in different places (or absent) depending on your keyboard. On my mobile device (iPhone), it is in the shifted numerics, to the right of the backslash. In mathmode, \vert gives $\vert$ and \mid gives $\mid$, but neither works in the column spec for an array. If you cannot type it on your keyboard, you can alwaays copy and paste it from another document.

Aug 30, 2012 at 1:37 comment added MJD Thanks! I like your numeric example better, since the widths of the entries are different enough that the alignment differences are visually clear.

Better example
Aug 29, 2012 at 22:00 comment added axblount @RahulNarain: True. I used words just for illustration, but I guess the example was slightly misleading. If you'd like to modify it please go ahead.
Aug 29, 2012 at 21:30 comment added user856 You'll have to wrap the contents of each cell in \text if you don't want $all italics, weird-looking spacing, an' odd apostrophes$.
