Do we need a keyboard for that.There are apps. Or can we write some code or latex? Or does whatsapp or google having so many developers even accept mathematical symbols like the θ sign or ∫ sign?

To write mathematical symbols on WhatsApp or Google, you can use the built-in keyboard shortcuts or install a third-party keyboard app that includes mathematical symbols. For example, on an iPhone, you can hold down the dollar sign ($) to see a list of mathematical symbols, while on an Android device, you can install the Gboard app and switch to the "Symbols" layout to access mathematical symbols.
If your device does not have keyboard shortcuts or a third-party keyboard app, you can use the copy and paste method. Simply find the mathematical symbol you need online, copy it, and paste it into your message on WhatsApp or Google.
No, WhatsApp and Google do not support LaTeX formatting. However, you can use unicode characters to represent mathematical symbols. For example, you can type \sqrt for the square root symbol (√), or \pi for the pi symbol (π).
To write fractions or exponents on WhatsApp or Google, you can either use the built-in keyboard shortcuts or copy and paste the symbols from a website. Alternatively, you can use unicode characters such as \frac{}{} for fractions and xⁿ for exponents.
Yes, some third-party keyboard apps also offer handwriting recognition for mathematical symbols, which can be useful for devices without keyboard shortcuts or for those who prefer to handwrite their equations. Additionally, some messaging apps have a "math mode" feature that allows you to write and format mathematical equations within the app itself.
