I have a strange problem. It seems I cannot use any of the matrix environments (matrix
, bmatrix
, pmatrix
etc.). The following code will not render on my machine
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
%%% BEGIN DOCUMENT
\begin{document}
\begin{bmatrix}
U_{11} & U_{12}& U_{13}& \cdots& U_{1k}\\
U_{21} & U_{22}& U_{23}& \cdots& U_{2k}\\
\vdots & &\vdots & &\vdots \\
U_{N1} & U_{N2}& U_{N3}& \cdots& U_{Nk} \\
\end{bmatrix}
\end{document}
However if I just put the bmatrix
environment code into LaTeXiT, everything works fine. I have tried even just the simplest matrix examples using several matrix
environments and none seem to work. Is my amsmath
package hosed somehow?
I'm running OSX 10.7.4 and am using TexShop installed via MacTeX. Here is the error:
! Missing $ inserted.
! Missing $ inserted.
<inserted text>
$
l.12 \end{bmatrix}
?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
bmatrix
in math mode- for example$\begin{bmatrix}...\end{bmatrix}$
