|
|
I am using Math inside of Writer. How do I type in a one sided limit. For example, I want the limit of {stuff} as h goes to zero from the right. Should look something like lim h->0+.
lim from h toward {0+}
does not work |

The following worked for me:
lim from h toward 0^+phantom{1}
- / + won't appear in a superscript without being followed by another character, which is why I used the phantom statement to prevent the 1 from appearing. |

lim x2 -1
x->0 x-1
As per my perception, we can present a limit of f(x) in this manner. Hence in such a way the equations can be present. |

"+" is easier to use than + phantom {1}.

| You could try | Code: | | lim from x toward {0"+"} { {x^2-1} over {x-1} } |
or perhaps you want to describe the situation where x is around one, and you want a superscripted plus sign:
| Code: | | lim from x toward {1^"+"} { {x^2-1} over {x-1} } |
