About
[MathB.in] is a website meant for sharing snippets of mathematical text with others on the web. This is a pastebin for mathematics. The source code of MathB.in is available at <https://github.com/susam/mathb>. [MathB.in]: ./ Posting and Sharing ------------------- A new post can be composed by visiting the [home page](/) and writing or pasting code in the box on the left hand pane of the page. Once a post is composed and submitted, the page is saved and it becomes accessible with a new unique URL. The new page looks similar to this page and it has a unique URL of its own. The URL can be shared with anyone on the web and they will be able to visit your post. Post Format ----------- A post can be composed in a mixture of LaTeX and Markdown text. For a demonstration of how LaTeX and Markdown is rendered, see the [demo page](1). To quickly get started with posting mathematical snippets, see the [tutorial](2). Usage ----- This website is meant for creating mathematical snippets. Science and technical posts are also welcome on this website. Any other type of post should not be posted to this website. Any post that is not mathematical, scientific, or technical in nature will be removed. History ------- [MathB.in] is the oldest mathematics pastebin that is still online and serving its community of users. It isn't the first mathematics pastebin though. It's the second. The first pastebin was written by Mark A. Stratman. It was hosted at the domain *mathbin.net* until 2020. MathB.in was born on Sunday, 25 March 2012, after a single night of furious coding. This was a result of stumbling upon [math.stackexchange.com] the previous night which used MathJax to render mathematics formula on the web browser. Thanks to that chance encounter with MathJax, the rest of the Saturday night was spent in coding a new mathematics pastebin using MathJax and PHP. After coding all through the night, registering a new domain name, and setting up a website, [MathB.in] was released early Sunday morning. The current version of MathB.in no longer runs on PHP. It has been rewritten in Common Lisp since then. See the blog post [MathB.in Turns Ten] for more details about the history of MathB.in.
