Install

pytexit is on PyPi::

pip install pytexit

Use

pytexit features the py2tex, for2tex for2py functions.

In a Terminal, use py2tex::

py2tex 'x = 2*sqrt(2*pi*k*T_e/m_e)*(DeltaE/(k*T_e))**2*a_0**2'

In a Python console, use py2tex::

from pytexit import py2tex
py2tex('x = 2*sqrt(2*pi*k*T_e/m_e)*(DeltaE/(k*T_e))**2*a_0**2')

returns the corresponding LaTeX formula (to re-use in papers)::

$$x=2\\sqrt{\\frac{2\\pi k T_e}{m_e}} \\left(\\frac{\\Delta E}{k T_e}\\right)^2 a_0^2$$

and (in ipython console only) prints the equation:
