ConTeXt mathematics macros

ConTeXt mathematics macros

[Shuxian Wang]

Hello list,

As a new user of ConTeXt, I have some trouble on trying out various 
mathematics modules.

I tried to use the nath module by directly including `\usemodule[nath]` 
in my source file. It seems that the module is not loaded. I read 
through the wiki page and found that nath is not included in the TeX 
Live distribution, but I failed to find a way to install it. Also, when 
I hunted through the wiki articles, it stated that the newmat module is 
included by default, but I never find it in my TeX Live 2018. Am I 
missing something or is the wiki outdated?

By the way, I am looking for a "battery included" math module, which 
provides predefined macros like the absolute value symbol, derivative, 
and partial derivative. Any recommendation or advice on this?

Thanks!

Shuxian Wang

The content of all mentioned modules has moved to the core years ago
and there is no need to load another code although a few goodies like
fancy arrow styles etc. (which use metapost graphics) have to loaded.

To get a proper answer to your problems you should provide a example
which shows what you try to achieve.
