# Border Matrix in Pluto

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to use a bordermatrix in Pluto? I tried the following without success:

md"
$M = \bordermatrix{~ & x & y \cr A & 1 & 0 \cr B & 0 & 1 \cr}$
"


this seems to work:



# ╔═╡ 0efec04f-c052-4f59-b41e-8dcc8f48a117
using Latexify

L"\begin{align}
f(x) &= ax^2 + bx + c \\
&= \begin{array}{c c}
& \begin{array} {@{} c c c @{}}
u_1 & \cdots & u_q
\end{array} \\
\begin{array}{c}
e_1 \\ \vdots \\ e_n
\end{array}\hspace{-1em} &
\left(
\begin{array}{@{} c c c @{}}
u_{11} & \cdots & u_{1q} \\
\vdots &        & \vdots \\
u_{n1} & \cdots & u_{nq}
\end{array}
\right) \\
\mbox{} % Blank line to match column names so as to align the = vertically
\end{array} \\[-12pt] % Correction for blank line
&= ax^2 + bx + c
\end{align}"


you should be able to create a function to scaffold a julia type with the latex w/ latexify

another option is to try katex instead of mathjax:

the advantage of katex is that because it can be limited to one context (like a cell), it is more customizable.

Thank you for your answer. Is it possible to do this inside the notebook cell rather than the .jl file? The following did not work:

md"
L"\begin{align}
f(x) &= ax^2 + bx + c \\
&= \begin{array}{c c}
& \begin{array} {@{} c c c @{}}
u_1 & \cdots & u_q
\end{array} \\
\begin{array}{c}
e_1 \\ \vdots \\ e_n
\end{array}\hspace{-1em} &
\left(
\begin{array}{@{} c c c @{}}
u_{11} & \cdots & u_{1q} \\
\vdots &        & \vdots \\
u_{n1} & \cdots & u_{nq}
\end{array}
\right) \\
\mbox{} % Blank line to match column names so as to align the = vertically
\end{array} \\[-12pt] % Correction for blank line
&= ax^2 + bx + c
\end{align}"

CommonMark seems to work for me instead of the built in Markdown. It works in many situations where Markdown doesn’t work: CommonMark Math in Pluto

I had to remove the comments in the latex since they seemed to break the parser but worked fine after that.
