cases environment doesn't render

[IreneCrisologo]

When i'm using the cases environment, it just shows the raw equation snippet.

PS. This extension was suggested in this thread.

Hey,

What exactly is your issue? The cases environment is working fine for me, with the minor caveat that you have to use \cr instead of a double slash for separating cases.

Here's a working example: $f(x) = \begin{cases}a & x < c \cr b & x \ge c\end{cases}$ and its source:

f(x) = \begin{cases}a & x < c \cr b & x \ge c\end{cases}

And thank you for the reference, I wasn't aware.

Closing the issue. Just an update for future reference, the issue with double slash is that due to Github's post-processing, double slash simply outputs a single slash, so you'd have to use four slashes to produce a double slash in your final post. Here's an example:

Rendered equation: $f(x) = \begin{cases}a & x < c \\ b & x \ge c\end{cases}$ Code:

f(x) = \begin{cases}a & x < c \\\\ b & x \ge c\end{cases}
