Headings & Comments

Headings

Use the # character to indicate a heading line. Heading lines are emboldened and do not display an answer (even if there are numbers in the heading).

# This is a heading

You can customise the size of headings, as well as their color (and the color of the # symbol itself) from Soulver's styling preferences.

There is also an option to strip heading symbols when exporting into PDF or printing.

Comments

If you want Soulver to ignore certain numbers on a line, use a comment, like a label or a double slash comment.

labels:

Use a label at the beginning of a line, using a colon:

Cost of 128 GB iPhone 16: $999 | $999.00

Labels are automatically formatted in bold.

// double slash comments

All numbers after two slashes are ignored:

// 1 + 2 | 
1 + 2    | 3

You can also add slash comments to the end of lines:

(parenthesis comments)

Numbers with additional commenting words inside parentheses are ignored:

"inline comments"

You can "quote out" numbers in the middle of an expression to have them ignored:

Label

123:

Sometimes a space character is needed after the : to distinguish from a clock time (like 14:45)

Double slash

// 123

Commonly used in software languages. Press ⌘-/ to automatically comment out an entire line in this style.

Parenthesis

(123 comment)

Ensure you have an accompanying comment word inside the parentheses, to prevent implicit multiplication.

Inline

"123"
