First time markdown user (and LaTex novice).
I'm trying to insert inline formulas using single $ as I have seen demonstrated in several places, including the R Markdown Reference Guide - but it's not working.
inline equation test: $x \leq 5 $ not working
is simply output as
"inline equation test: $x 5 $ not working"
It works fine using $$ to create a new line, but any tips how to get it working inline would be much appreciated.
