Escaping dollar sign in ipython notebook

Question

I have a markdown cell in iPython that contains four dollar signs. iPython interprets anything between dollar signs as a MathJax expression, which is not what I want. How do

Answer 1

I was not able to get most of these solutions working. One that did work, though, is explained here. It refers to a SO question here and is as simple as:

<span class="tex2jax_ignore">$900 vs $4,500</span>

Hope this helps someone!
