I was always using the $$ $$ for equations (and obviously went wrong). Thanks to your video I can now write the equations in Anki in a proper way. Appreciate you man
Thanks, that was a good, easy to follow video. I'm trying to learn LaTeX for the Uni Maths I'm preparing for next year. You made the LaTeX look easy, in fact you said it was easy, that's encouraging for me. I've subscribed, and I'd love to see some more videos with LaTeX and Maths. You come across well. It'd be good to hear more about Anki as well, thanks!
Thanks for the pointer, been trying to figure out why my code failed to compile and done so using this video! Very easy to follow, decently explained. Nice
Is using anki to memorize definitions really necessary? I feel even in higher level classes like algebra, most chapters will start with maybe 5-10 definition, and then there will be 30 pages of proofs and theorems off of those definitions, and if you follow through, the definitions will be second nature by then. Especially if you use the definitions in some exercises.
@Enrico Amatori What do you mean? In mathematics definitions are clear cut enough that misunderstanding them is not so easy. Maybe your perspective shifts over and over again, but the definition is still gonna be what it was.
Apart from the defaults I have: 1) "Bury related new cards until the next day" & "bury related reviews until the next day" ticked (this avoids related cards acting as a hints to each other on the same day, which would make the cards easier to answer). 2) I have "Order: show new cards in random order" (this makes it a little bit harder and, same as above, stops similar cards acting as hints to each other. Like if you have two new cards on the same topic, one after the other, then you don't need to "reload" that topic into your brain for the second card. Separating them forces you to "reload" which is much much better for learning.) 3) New cards/day: 50 (this keeps my daily reviews to just over an hour a day, play with this number until you find your sweet spot.) 4) Maximum reviews/day: 2000 (I have this purposely high, I prefer to limit my daily reviews by limiting the number of new cards. I don't want any reviews to be postponed since Anki is designed to make you review cards at the optimal moment for memory recall.) 5) Leech action: tag only (it's well annoying when cards get leeched). Let me know if you have anymore questions!
Yeah LaTeX requires a bit more set-up, but MathJax should be enough for most peoples needs (just use "\(" and ")\" to start and end MathJax in any Anki card). They both use the same syntax too.
i mean, my initial goal was to learn at least all of the school basics and some calculus terms in english, but i'd be a hypocrite not to use flashcards to further study maths lol, thanks! btw brave browser, heck yeah
Definitions can become a mess after the first years. Also the nature of propositions can become too abstract as well, and flashcards are really useful to remember conditions in which the proposition is true. Counterexamples can also be kept fresh with flashcards.
Thanks for this video! It's great to have content about anki that is focused for maths and not med students, finally 😅
תכלס
as a current maths student & anki fan I am excited for more of your vids! this intro to syntax in latex has already solved a problem i was having :)
Thanks! I’m glad you found it useful :)

Really great tutorial. Didn't know you could just write latex using backslash and parenthesis - thanks for sharing!

Very cool!
Thanks for the great content!
Thank you for the video!⚡⚡
Thanks a lot! I wish you could make a video about how to write maths formulas using latex!
great video, thank you
I would probably just take a picture of it and put that on the back of the card. but I'm lazy.
First! Nice shirt!
Thanks bossman!
Great video. Great channel. Keep it up!
Does anyone know whether anki has the latex built in ? Any video on the latex language ??
I cant write \ or { } in anki help someone
Woahh trop cool!

What are your deck settings?
Apart from the defaults I have:
1) "Bury related new cards until the next day" & "bury related reviews until the next day" ticked (this avoids related cards acting as a hints to each other on the same day, which would make the cards easier to answer).
2) I have "Order: show new cards in random order" (this makes it a little bit harder and, same as above, stops similar cards acting as hints to each other. Like if you have two new cards on the same topic, one after the other, then you don't need to "reload" that topic into your brain for the second card.

5) Leech action: tag only (it's well annoying when cards get leeched).
Let me know if you have anymore questions!
At 2:48 you mention having one ‘Math’ deck so that your recall practice is not too context specific, but what about sub decks?
5:00 or use tags. What about nested decks for subject/level and tags for similar material across different decks?
any idea what was the latest version of Anki that had this editing process?
Isn't that mathjax?
Perfect.
is latex pre-included in anki?
MathJax is included, which is what he uses here. LaTeX requires separate installation, but the two systems are very similar
Yeah LaTeX requires a bit more set-up, but MathJax should be enough for most peoples needs (just use "\(" and ")\" to start and end MathJax in any Anki card). They both use the same syntax too.
Do you have to do any prep work to use LaTeX in Anki?
This is good sh1t!

btw brave browser, heck yeah
do you put multistep questions in anki? if so, to what degree of success?
Do you mean like three-sided cards? Where you have to give one answer, reveal and then give another answer?
Muito bom. Não entendi tudo, mas ajudou. Obrigado.
Thank you. Your video helped me a lot, you're really cute ;)
Who the hell down votes this?
could be useful during the first years of your maths studies but after that,...
