Good work at Calculus
Just thought I should say I thought you were doing good work at calculus, and to keep it up. I am one of the other people interested, generally speaking, in the math texts around here. If you run into any points where you have a question about anything feel free to drop a line on my talk page. I have spent enough time wrestling with the LaTeX implementation here that I might know a trick or two. Hope fun. Thenub314 (talk) 17:49, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Polynomial Division
A bit kludgy, but how does this look? $$\begin{array}{rl}&\,x-1\\ x+2\!\!\!\!&\big)\!\!\!\begin{array}{lll} \hline \,x^2+x+1 \end{array}\\ &\!\!\!\!-\underline{(x^2+2x)}\\ &-x+1\\ &~-\underline{(-x-2)}\\ &3\\ \end{array}$$

 * That looks great, and just in time--I was hoping to do this anyway because the partial fractions section requires it. Thanks!  --Greenbreen (discuss • contribs) 08:12, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
