Typing in [math]\therefore[/math] gives $\therefore$

Typing in [math]\because[/math] gives $\because$

Ye, overlooked that back slash

Of course it works:
$\therefore$
$\because$

$\because$ it works
$\therefore$ LaTeX is great!

How do you type in %? My webbrowser didn't wanna display the page when I created a LaTeX formula with % in it as always when something in the LaTeX code is wrong.

[math]\%[/math] gives $\%$

Typing [math]\sum_{i\ =\ 0}^n f(i)[/math] gives $\sum_{i\ =\ 0}^n f(i)$ , a Sigma sign as a sum sign. But how do you do if you want to have a multiplication sign, a Pi sign ( $\Pi$ ) that works like the sum sign?

$\prod_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{k}=0$

Is it possible to put a big cross all over the formula to make clear it is not true?

just say "not equal to"

Such as typing in [math]1\neq-1[/math] gives $1\neq-1$

Can you make some part of the expression appear in another color?

Problems with \left and \right:

$\left(\frac{x}{y}\right)$
$\left[\frac{x}{y}\right]$
$\left|\frac{x}{y}\right|$
But [math]\left{\frac{x}{y}\right}[/math] doesn't work.
