Using \displaystyle to add subscript limit below the text

Post by assafwe »

Hi,

I want to use \displaystyle to align subscript text with the preceding term (I want the subscript to be beneath, not to the right bottom..), but forgot how.. Can anyone help?

Thanx,

Asaf

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Please, provide minimal, complete and compilable code. I'm not very good at guessing. Perhaps this can help you:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}

\begin{document}

$\sum_{i\geq 0}i$ versus $\sum\limits_{i\geq 0}i$

\end{document}
1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,...

A useful and comprehensive work about math typesetting is the »Math mode« document.
