latexify

latexify_py converts small, math-heavy pieces of Python code into human-readable LaTeX that mirrors the intent of the computation, not just its surface syntax. It parses Python functions and expressions into an abstract syntax tree (AST), applies symbolic rewrites for common mathematical constructs, and then emits LaTeX that compiles cleanly in standard environments. Typical use cases include turning analytical utilities—like probability mass functions, activation formulas, or recurrence relations—into equations suitable for papers, notebooks, and slide decks. The tool aims to preserve semantics such as exponentiation, summations, products, piecewise definitions, and function application while hiding Pythonic scaffolding. Users can control rendering details for names and operators so the output conforms to a project’s notation style. Because it works directly from Python source, it enables a tight authoring loop.
