This task describes the simple input of a polynomial within the formulæ, their preview in the web-browser, and the usage of their added value presentation

Prerequisite:

• create-collection
• applications-on: jEditOQMath, ActiveMath, web-browser

Task steps

• open jEditOQMath and an OQMath file there, e.g. first.oqmath within the collection you now have
• find a CMP element inside there, that is, find the place in the text right after <CMP> (maybe with a language attribute)
• inside there, but not between two $ signs, we can now insert our expression, click to put the cursor
• input $
• input the formula, for example x^3+3/x^5+3x^2
• close the math expression by inserting $ again

• save your file (press the pen or invoke C-S)

• click the AntFarm tab on the left

• select collection, ActiveMath Publishing build file, press the running man, wait till it says `BUILD SUCCESSFUL
• go to your web browser and there to your ActiveMath
• open the book Complete Recbook
• see the item you just enriched there

• if you do not find it, redo the steps after doing the task cont-2

• you can now hover with your mouse around this polynomial and let the sub-term and tooltips be shown

• if you do not see the tooltips, you have probably been reported a reference error, that is, the symbols are not referenced explicitly enough
• go back to jEditOQMath, find, towards the top of your file, the start of the theory element, put your cursor there right after it
• invoke OQMath > Generate Imports, this will take a bit of time then will insert a few lines with suggested imports (and warnings for ambiguity)

• now go back to your book page, see the polynomial with the tooltups

• you can click on a sub-term, see the term popup and click Search for term (only using Mozilla family of browsers)

• your item should appear as one of the results of the search, you may need to Generalize to all items, close the search tool
• in ActiveMath book page, invoke Tools > Function Plotter

• an applet pops-up with a graph pop-up

• hovering back on your formula, click again to get the term-menu

• invoke Drag term
• a yellow box is drawn around the term, drag it into the window of the plotter applet, on the applet
• the plotter should now display the graph of your function as well as the (reformulated) function
