Math & Science ⇒ Equation

[ubuntu2014]

Hello. I am writing an article and alredy included amsmath package. I need to add a long equation but I also want to number that equation. Numbering is automatically done by \begin{eqnarray} and \end{eqnarray} tags. But writing a long equation does not split into another line. Instead, it overflows from the page. Using two back slashes doesn't help even. What should I do ? I also want the automatically adjusted square brackets even if the equation is broken in two lines.

Hi,
it would be much easier to help if you would post the equation

For now, i can only say, that amsmath provides the split environment. Have a look at voss-mathmode for more information.

Using brackets is bit more complicated, as they have to match on one line. You need to use invisible constructs instead using \left. \right]. More information can be found as well in the linked document.

The amsmath manual (Section 3, Displayed equations) is also recommandable to look at for multi line equations.

This is the equation :

This is boring text but not fascinating math.

It's not a good dummy representation, because dependent on relation signs you might get an optimal suggestion with alignment.

You could simply copy your code here into the forum post.

I was unwilling to post my real equation so I have sent you a private message.

[ubuntu2014]

Have you received my Private Message ? I don't know why, but it remains in the outbox and not in the sent messages folder.

[Stefan Kottwitz]

I received it and now I read it.

This is a public forum, so everybody can find solutions by google. Private messages hide solutions. I provide public support to keep the forum alive. I don't give private message support to not destroy a public forum.

Again, you sent a screenshot of output (in the message). How on earth should I insert commands in your screenshot? We work with code here. Screenshots are a bonus for easier seeing output.

Here is my equation. Can anyone code it in LaTeX ?

[Stefan Kottwitz]

Sure, and better, the formula has asymmetries and small flaws. So you would like to re-create this formula?

Shall we do typing work?

Really, you should post your code which you already have. We help to finish it. No problem with improving, we just are no typing service.
