Math rendering should work for reStructuredText #1578

Open Alhadis opened 2 years ago

Alhadis commented 2 years ago

reStructuredText includes facilities for marking up mathematical expressions, just like GitHub-flavoured markdown does:

Syntax
Markdown reStructuredText
Block syntax $$ ... $$ `.. math::`
Inline syntax $ ... $ :math:`...`

Unfortunately, only Markdown gets to enjoy the properly rendered equations:

Rendered output
Markdown reStructuredText

Block syntax

 $$\sqrt{3x-1}+(1+x)^2$$ \sqrt{3x-1}+(1+x)^2
Inline syntax $\sqrt{3x-1}+(1+x)^2$ \sqrt{3x-1}+(1+x)^2

Since reStructuredText's uses MathJax's syntax for its equations, this should be a trivial fix on GitHub's end.

Not stale. This is still an issue.
