A week older and still not smarter...
Sorry for the noise, but I am still trying to find a way of getting
useful latex output for equations that contain decimal numbers. It
seems that the previous posts passed below the radars of those that
might know the answer, so I am trying to push it to the surface again.
Isn't anybody else bothered by rows of 0s in the latex() or show()
output?
Cheers
Stan
