First, just to state the obvious, if you can accurately describe a notation in words, you can do an Internet search for it. When that fails, math.stackexchange.com is a very active and helpful resource. You can ask what certain notation means, and upload a screenshot since it’s not always easy to describe math notation in words. If you don’t want to wait for a human response, Detexify (https://detexify.kirelabs.org/classify.html) is an awesome site where you can hand draw math notation and it’ll tell you the LaTeX code for it. That often gives a better clue for what to search for. For example you could draw an upside down triangle, and see that one of the ways to express this in LaTeX is \nabla. Then you can look up the Wikipedia article on the Nabla symbol. (Of course in this case you could easily have just searched “math upside down triangle symbol” and the first result is a Math Stackechange thread answering this). |
