Template:Oiint/doc

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Note: I didn't create this template. I just ported it from Wikipedia.org. All credit should go to the creator of this template, which isn't me.[change source]

This template is used to include the triple closed integral, usually in a mathematical formula. It overcomes a limitation of the TeX rendering which cannot display this symbol without clumsy workarounds.

Arguments[change source]

  • preintegral the text or formula immediately before the integral
  • intsubscpt the subscript below the integral
  • integrand the text or formula immediately after the formula

All parameters are optional.

Examples[change source]

:{{oiiint
| preintegral = <math>\frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}}</math>
| intsubscpt = <math>{\scriptstyle \Omega}</math>
| integrand = <math>\frac{\partial F}{\partial s} \, {\rm d}\Sigma</math>
}}
\oiint

Technical details[change source]

The \oiiint command is not part of AMS-LaTeX, and thus not part of the math support that MediaWiki provides. It is available as a unicode character U+2230 but font support for this character can be lacking. For this reason, the template provides an image variant of the character.
