New issue 2646 by asmeurer: Space between multiple pretty-printed multiple
integral signs
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2646
Right now, we print multiple integrals like this:
⌠ ⌠
⎮ ⎮ ⎛ 1 ⎞
⎮ ⎮ sin⎜─────⎟ dx dy
⎮ ⎮ ⎝x + y⎠
⌡ ⌡
/ /
| |
| | / 1 \
| | sin|-----| dx dy
| | \x + y/
| |
/ /
You may not notice, but there is a space between the integral signs (two
spaces for the ASCII version). But in LaTeX, which is the epitome of
mathematical typesetting, we always use \iint to print multiple indefinite
integrals, which makes the integral signs come closer together. So I
wonder if we should actually print these as
⌠⌠
⎮⎮ ⎛ 1 ⎞
⎮⎮ sin⎜─────⎟ dx dy
⎮⎮ ⎝x + y⎠
⌡⌡
and
/ /
| |
| | / 1 \
| | sin|-----| dx dy
| | \x + y/
| |
/ /
or even
//
||
|| / 1 \
|| sin|-----| dx dy
|| \x + y/
||
//
This is just an idea. I'm not sure if this really looks better or not.
Also, there is the question of what to do for definite integrals. Hence,
I'm going to just leave this here for comments.
