 ## Math mode { #math }
 Math mode is a special markup mode that is used to typeset mathematical
-formulas. It is entered by wrapping an equation in `[$]` characters. The
-equation will be typeset into its own block if it starts and ends with at least
-one space (e.g. `[$ x^2 $]`). Inline math can be produced by omitting the
-whitespace (e.g. `[$x^2$]`). An overview over the syntax specific to math mode
