How to show an easy latex-formula in python? Maybe numpy is the right choice?
EDIT:
I have python code like:
a = '\frac{a}{b}'
and want to print this in a graphical output (like matplotlib).

As suggested by Andrew little work around using matplotlib.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
a = '\\frac{a}{b}' #notice escaped slash
plt.plot()
plt.text(0.5, 0.5,'$%s$'%a)
plt.show()
Matplotlib can already do TeX, by setting text.usetex: True
in ~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc
. Then, you can just use TeX in all displayed strings, e.g.,
ylabel(r"Temperature (K) [fixed $\beta=2$]")
(be sure to use the $
as in normal in-line TeX!). The r
before the string means that no substitutions are made; otherwise you have to escape the slashes as mentioned.
More info at the matplotlib site.
Without ticks:
a = r'\frac{a}{b}'
ax = plt.axes([0,0,0.1,0.2]) #left,bottom,width,height
ax.set_xticks([])
ax.set_yticks([])
plt.text(0.3,0.4,'$%s$' %a,size=40)
Draw with matplotlib,
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
a = r'\frac{a}{b}'
ax=plt.subplot(111)
ax.text(0.5,0.5,r"$%s$" %(a),fontsize=30,color="green")
plt.show()
Creating mathematical formulas in Pandas.
a = r'\frac{a}{b}'
ax = plt.axes([0,0,0.3,0.3]) #left,bottom,width,height
ax.set_xticks([])
ax.set_yticks([])
ax.axis('off')
plt.text(0.4,0.4,'$%s$' %a,size=50,color="green")
a = r'f(x) = \frac{\exp(-x^2/2)}{\sqrt{2*\pi}}'
ax = plt.axes([0,0,0.3,0.3]) #left,bottom,width,height
ax.set_xticks([])
ax.set_yticks([])
ax.axis('off')
plt.text(0.4,0.4,'$%s$' %a,size=50,color="green")
