How do you type the dollar sign when you have mathjax installed?

Question

So in Jekyll and Markdown, I can\'t type $ or its HTML equivalent code, and not \\$ nor $\\$$. How should I type the dollar sign?

Answer 1

To prevent MathJax from using the dollar sign as a delimiter, you can put it in a span, like so:

$

Alternatively, you can enable processEscapes and then you can use the backslash escape \$ for the dollar sign.
