Code For Overlayed Equations = lhs L A T EX presentations with Prosper – p. 7/16

Code For Overlayed Equations = lhs rhs L A T EX presentations with Prosper – p. 7/16

Code For Overlayed Equations = lhs rhs = rhs 2 L A T EX presentations with Prosper – p. 7/16

Code For Overlayed Equations = lhs rhs = rhs 2 The code for this example is: \ begin{eqnarray*} \ onlySlide*{1}{lhs & = & \ phantom{rhs 2} % the longest rhs} \\ } \ fromSlide*{2}{lhs & = & rhs \ phantom{2} \\ } \ fromSlide*{3}{ \ phantom{lhs} & = & rhs 2 \\ } \ end{eqnarray*} The starred versions of the commands are used because they use replacement. Note the use of \ phantom{ . . . } which allocates space for its argument but does not print it. L A T EX presentations with Prosper – p. 7/16
