Mathematical notation should be unified

Question

Closed this issue 4 months ago · 5 comments

The first chapter uses $$ character for writing mathematical variables and equations, like $a = 0$. The second chapter use ``, like a = 0.

Unsure what other chapters use.

These should be unified across all chapters. But someone needs to decide the "correct" notation first.

When the context is a variable in source code, it should be a = 0. When the context is "math" (no reference to code) it should be $a = 0$.

The old website did not support math notation, so there was no option for $a = 0$ and it always had to be a = 0.

in the groth-16.md the right hand side's upper limit is from 1 to n but it should be 1 to m..I think
