A list of common algebraic operators in LaTeX

This is the 14th video in a series of 21 by Dr Vincent Knight of Cardiff University. Here we present a list of algebraic operators commonly used in LaTeX equations. These include:

$a+b$
$a-b$
$-a$
$a\cdot b$
$a\times b$
$a/b$
${a\over b}$
$\frac{a}{b}$

The final two in the list both show how to write fractions in LaTeX; the use of \frac is more widely used than \over. In the next two videos we'll see how to include integrals and matrices.
