Question 49999: Is there special software you can down load in order to write out a question properly in the case of logarithms or numbers squared etc?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi,
Yes there are various pieces of software out there for setting out equations and scientific text. The three that come to mind are:
1) Equation editors (Come with office suites such as Microsoft Office)
2) MathML (An extension to HTML that allows you to write equations and have them rendered reasonably well)
3) TeX/LaTeX (My personal favourite - this is a typesetter, you use it instead of a wordprocessor and it is much better in so many ways. For a start it's free! However, it is pretty hard to use)
Hopefully the names should give you a good start and you can go googling. If you want to see what something written in LaTeX can do, then write back and I'll do you a quick example.
Hope that helps
Kev
