Anyone else have a hard t--GFauxPas 14:32, 19 February 2012 (EST)ime distinguishing between $u$ and $v$? I would like it to look more like this, does it confuse anyone else? It seems PW doesn't have the upgreek package. --GFauxPas 07:49, 27 January 2012 (EST)


 * Nope. Multiple years of extensive TeX writing and reading have trained my eye. I agree that referenced $v$ looks more distinguished, but imagine it is hard to implement. --Lord_Farin 08:08, 27 January 2012 (EST)

For anyone who has been following my progress or lack thereof on exponent combination laws/log laws etc, feel free to look on. --GFauxPas 16:59, 6 February 2012 (EST)


 * Okay, it looks like $e^{xy} = e^xe^y$ was the hardest one to prove! I was expecting a walk uphill the whole way. Oh, my Linear Algebra book came in the mail, so I guess I'll work on vectors next. And one of these days I'll have to tie up loose ends with Tarski. --GFauxPas 16:57, 10 February 2012 (EST)
