Introduction to MathJax

What is Mathjax?

MathJax allows you to include mathematics in your web pages, either using LaTeX, MathML, or AsciiMath notation, and the mathematics will be processed using JavaScript to produce HTML, SVG or MathML equations for viewing in any modern browser.

Installing MathJax on Your Website

The easiest way to install MathJax on your website is adding link of CDN(Content Distribution/Delivery Network) inside the head section of your website. You copy and paste following code just above closing head tag. You can place following code on body part of your website too. If you are using Blogger as your blogging platform you can add this code on your HTML post editor. It is not necessary to add this code for each post. You can add this code by adding HTML/JavaScript gadget for this script stored on CDN.  I added this code along with the codes of contact button.


<script async="" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mathjax/2.7.2/MathJax.js?config=TeX-MML-AM_CHTML" type="text/javascript">
</script>

Let us Start MathJax

The support for TeX and LaTeX in MathJax consists of two parts: the tex2jax preprocessor, and the TeX input processor. The first of these looks for mathematics within your web page (indicated by math delimiters like $$...$$) and marks the mathematics for later processing by MathJax. The TeX input processor is what converts the TeX notation into MathJax’s internal format, where one of MathJax’s output processors then displays it in the web page.

The default, the tex2jax preprocessor defines the LaTeX math delimiters are $$...$$ and \[...\] for displayed mathematics, and \(...\) for in-line mathematics. Note in particular that the $...$ in-line delimiters are not used by default. That is because dollar signs appear too often in non-mathematical settings, which could cause some text to be treated as mathematics unexpectedly. For example, with single-dollar delimiters, ”The Raspberry Pi3 is of $35 while Raspberry Pi Zero W costs only $5" would cause the phrase "35 while Raspberry Pi Zero W costs only" to be treated as mathematics since it falls between dollar signs.

If you don't know LaTeX commands, don't bother about that. There is an awesome tool called Detexify. You have to just draw your mathematical symbol on the Detexify. It will find out corresponding code. The Detexify has Android app on Google Play Store. An example for LaTeX command is give below. We will discuss more about those commands in next post.

The following MathJax code will give you result \(\frac12\). 

\(\frac12\)

8051 Simple Programs

Sum of 8-bit Numbers Stored in Memory Here  we will discuss about 8051 programs but we can't discuss about all of the 8051 instructions. For programming 8051 we should know about assembler directives as well as instruction set. Click  here to download Atmel c51 user guide that will discuss about 8051(c51 family microcontroller) instruction set, assembler directives, c51 cross assembler from Atmel.  Program ORG 00H MOV R0,#50H   ; get memory location in memory pointer R0 MOV R1,#51H   ; get memory location on memory pointer register R1 MOV A,@R0       ; get content of memory location 50H to accumulator ADD A,@R1        ; add content of A with content of memory location 51H and store result in A MOV R0,#52H    ; get 52H to memory pointer R0 MOV@R0,A         ; copy content of A to memory location 52H END Add 16-bit Numbers ...

ATMEGA-32 Pin-out Diagram

Overview The Atmel®AVR®ATmega32 is a low-power CMOS 8-bit microcontroller based on the AVR enhanced RISC architecture. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the ATmega32 achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz allowing the system designer to optimize power consumption versus processing speed. AVR spin-out diagrams Block diagram:- The Atmel®AVR®AVR core combines a rich instruction set with 32 general purpose working registers. All the 32 registers are directly connected to the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), allowing two independent registers to be accessed in one single instruction executed in one clock cycle. The resulting architecture is more code efficient while achieving throughputs up to ten times faster than conventional CISC microcontrollers. The ATmega32 provides the following features: 32Kbytes of In-System Programmable Flash Program memory with Read-While-Write capabilities, 1024bytes EEPROM, 2Kbyte SRAM, 32 general purpose I/O ...

Even and Odd Memory Banks

The 8086 microprocessor uses a 20-bit address to access memory. With 20-bit address the processor can generate 2 20 = 1 Mega address. The basic memory word size of the memories used in the 8086 system is 8-bit or 1-byte (i.e., in one memory location an 8-bit binary information can be stored). Hence, the physical memory space of the 8086 is 1Mb (1 Mega-byte). For the programmer, the 8086 memory address space is a sequence of one mega-byte in which one location stores an 8-bit binary code/data and two consecutive locations store 16-bit binary code/data. But physically (i.e., in the hardware), the 1Mb memory space is divided into two banks of 512kb (512kb + 512kb = 1Mb). The two memory banks are called Even (or Lower) bank and Odd (or Upper) bank. The organization of even and odd memory banks in the 8086-based system is shown in Figure. The 8086-based system will have two sets of memory IC's. One set for even bank and another set for odd bank. The data lines D 0 -D 7 are conne...
