Equation Editors for Inserting "pretty" mathematic calculations in your lab reports:
Editing equations on a computer can be a bit tricky to learn. As you probably know, trying to format an equation in a document is almost impossible (at least if you want it to look good). On computers, all equations are basically handled by a markup language called LaTeX, which is really powerful, but also a bit tricky to learn. Fortunately, there are a variety of visual editors that you can use to help you make your equations, but you are going to make a few mistakes before you “get” the logic that works under these systems. Google Docs has an in-program editor (available in the view menu) which is based on LaTeX, but is a bit simplified.
Using the Google Docs Equation Editor:
There are some nice visual equation editors that use full LaTeX scripting (you would export these equations as .png files and then import them into your lab report). Here are two that are pretty easy to use:
