I'm not a professional dba or dbd, but I'm proficient in the basics of
database design and sql. I want to create a database of math
definitions, and I'm wondering how one would go about creating a
database that contains mathematical notation (and I'm not just talking
about basic symbols where I could get away with ascii code). I need
to be able to insert a wide variety of mathematical expressions, from
fractions to integrals, into fields (just like you can enter in-line
math symbols in MS Word using equation editor). I have no clue how to
go about this. Is it a matter of developing certain programming
skills/languages? Would such a capabliltiy be proprietary (dbms-
specific)? Is it possible at all? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
