Latex with IPython (IPython) error

Question

While trying to use LaTeX with IPython, I used the following code:

from IPython.display import display, Math, Latex
display(Math(r'F(k) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x) e^{2\pi i k} dx'))

But, I got the following error.

<IPython.core.display.Math at 0x269a030>

What does this error mean? When do I get it? How can I get rid of it?

That's not an error. It's the printable representation of an object. — Wooble, Jul 13 '14 at 16:13

That is not an error. Run it with ipython notebook and you will see your integral displayed.

is there a way to get it displayed pretty in regular visual studio code? – Fondue meh Jan 26 '23 at 14:11
Not my area of expertise but it looks like the Quarto exrension can render in VS Code. https://quarto.org/docs/tools/vscode.html – hughdbrown Jan 27 '23 at 15:48

It is not an error, it is the output representation. Simply run the code inside the IPython notebook:

from IPython.display import display, Math, Latex
display(Math(r'F(k) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x) e^{2\pi i k} dx'))
