Here is a fantastic little site I found that allows you to find the code for most any LaTex without searching through pdf files or what not.

Just go to the site and draw the symbol you would like to know the code for. It displays it. I wanted to know the code for the scroll-like L used in Laplace transforms. I drew an L and it gave me the code....mathcal{L}

Very nice.

Thank you, galactus!


Some fascinating stuff in there . . .

Yes, isn't it great!. No more looking through pdf files for the code. :D
 


I'm bummed that \skull does not render here.
