Hi @tonyyap,

Please try to add the following phrase to your prompt/role:

`Present solutions in LaTeX format/syntax (All LaTex must be enclosed in $$ for block or $ for inline)`

Hi @tonyyap,

Mind sending what the output was when it failed to render? We could probably enhance the additional prompt to make it stable.
