Writing Math and Chemistry Equations on Anki (4 Methods)

[@AndreasBaumgartnerMUC]

Good job, explanation on point, no unnecessary talking. Well done mate!

[@kevinpolpitiya3200]

It is true what they say, that all heroes don't wear capes. Thank you so much Ray!!

[@touming9257]

This video is a gem

[@nascimento781]

Extremely helpful content, thank you!

[@saifnielsen8210]

Thank you so much I've been using anki for my a levels and this was really useful I never thought that there where alternative methods for writing Chem equations

[@Hasnu777]

How has it been so far? I've just started my A-Levels, using Anki to prepare for a CompSci test right now lol

[@laurafroede5996]

I've struggled with this for sooo long. Thank you so much!! Amazing video

[@fabianarfire]

ok I love you... You literally saved my life !! thank you !

[@ecuadorj]

studying equations for physical chemistry made me start using anki so this video was very helpful, thank you!

[@Honey-sv3ek]

Helped me a lot to understand the formulas on Anki, thank u so much

[@NeguinThG]

Thank you so much, you're awesome for sharing this!

[@ncn1988]

The best video. Thank you so much!

[@flusitik852]

Mathpix is a big time saver thx

[@TestimonyPony]

you are the man!!

[@DeanCohenOfficial]

Wow thank you!!!! Amazing!

[@ACGesCtry]

Thank YOU!

[@piqueselio]

Awesome video. You just saved me a lot of time ;). Thanks.

[@studyrikamode]

Excellent! Thank you so much, this helped me a lot ! :))))

[@simrannahar8262]

i can understand why there isnt a single dislike, this was so helpful!

[@thodorissiorikis8791]

Τέλειο - Perfect!!!!!

[@AditiArya-iu2vn]

thank you

[@tGoldenPhoenix]

Thank you. I did it.

[@Aslan_Baysangurov]

Great video thanks ! You also have « Symbol As You Type » add-on very helpful, for maths symbols. I use it and it’s excellent. 👌🏻

[@charlesdarwin9654]

Thanks King

[@sharpfocus007]

Hi Ray. How would you convert these Anki questions into clozed questions - and then what do you do when you have to type the answer into Anki - how would you do the sub and superscript? Thanks

[@edzty318]

can you do a video on cramming? I know you don’t cram but any advice for learning stuff as quickly as possible

[@RAmjad]

Hi, I don't really cram so I'm not sure how useful the advice I can offer is as I haven't tried it myself. The closest I have to a video on cramming is this one which I used to help me with mock revision a few times when mocks were pretty close: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kInTXpiBmM2KfsU I hope that strategy kinda helps!

[@euwillianeng]

Grear video thanks a lot

[@michellutegar7904]

thanks!!

[@MarcYee-xw7rt]

Hi, when using the inline Mathjax, are we able to put multiple numbers in superscript. For example 10^22. Thanks for the video!!!

[@RAmjad]

Hi, if you want to put multiple things in the superscript then you can use 10^{22}. The { } are useful to enclosing anything if it doesn't seem to be working properly

[@MarcYee-xw7rt]

perfect

[@MarcYee-xw7rt]

Is there a reason why I can't use LaTex? It says there is an error...

[@RAmjad]

So MathJax should work on both desktop and mobile because it uses a Javascript library to render the maths. But if you want to use LaTeX then you're going to have to download a LaTeX compiler such as MikTex (if you're using Windows). You can read more about it here: docs.ankiweb.net/#/math?id=latex#/math?id=latex#/math?id=latex There is no major difference between using MathJax and using LaTeX. I suggest you go for the former unless you have a very specific case to use LaTeX (such as you want to create tables in LaTeX or something which you can't really do with Mathjax). I hope that helps!

[@MarcYee-xw7rt]

@@RAmjad Thanks for the detailed answer!

[@0s7t3]

Can you make a video on the best add ons as well as how to make good gcse cards, what to include in cards and how to fix issues such as adding too much content in a card

[@RAmjad]

Sure! That sounds like a great idea. As a quick answer, my favourite add on is a heatmap one which shows how much progress you're making and one that changes the colour of the buttons to red, yellow and green ( see ankiweb.net/shared/info/1771074083 and ankiweb.net/shared/info/2494384865 ). As for too much content, I usually try to stick to one concept / piece of information per flashcard but I discuss it in more detail in an upcoming video 🚀

[@saifnielsen8210]

Enhanced image occlusion is really useful for biology Anki zoom Stats and data Also turn anki 2.1 scheduler it's has new features that the anking talks about and randomise cards in a subdecks

[@ettahadpanto3363]

Great

[@danielsundaram6601]

What are u doing at uni

[@RAmjad]

Ah, so I've just finished my second-year doing physics, starting my third-year in a little under a month

[@theaveragemegaguy]

You should give credit to where you got the equation editor from. I saw someone else do it first in that exact website

[@RAmjad]

You mean CodeCogs equation editor? I've been using it for the last 5 years or so (even before using Anki) so I never knew others used it but it's a great and intuitive website so I can see why they would

[@gopalgeorge3632]

we are predetermined by our genes and environment (your genes cock the gun and your environment pulls the trigger) , agree or disagree?

[@RAmjad]

I agree to an extent. I'll just split my answer into two: looks and intelligence. But there are many other possibilities. Of course, if you're born with good looks then it's going to easier for you to become a model or actor/actress or something. It's just a matter of landing your lucky break which does come down to your environment. Although, you may still have your growth stunted if you were malnourished growing up. For intelligence, I read in a book that there are 8 or 9 types - not sure how much this is based on research but I do believe there are many forms. If we go for the most general case of logical/mathematical intelligence which is most directly related to school then I don't believe your genes play a role but your environment does play a large role. If you went to say a fiercely competitive grammar school then you're more likely to improve your lateral thinking abilities to answer even harder maths-based questions than if you were to an underperforming school where few people care about doing well academically. It's a motivator in a sense. But I think the biggest factor in terms of environment is the country you're born up in. The difference in the level of opportunities the average person gets between say the UK and Pakistan are absolutely massive. I was fortunate enough to come to the UK at an early age (for which I'm incredibly grateful) and have had so many more opportunities in life than my cousins back home. Fortunately, resources like the internet are breaking down some of these barriers - especially in regards to education because it doesn't matter a whole lot if your teachers aren't good. You can find plenty of free and fantastic videos on KZbin and Khan Academy no matter where you are provided you have a computer and internet connection. So I remain hopeful as more communities around the world get connected to the internet. Hopefully, that provides an insight into my perspective. By the way, great questions! I really like answering them

[@otavioronsini]

there is a software that does the same thing as mathpix, but for free. it's called simpletex
