Speeding up repetitive typing
If I am writing a document say,
documentclass{article}
usepackage{amsmath}
begin{document}
begin{equation}
y = some long equation
end{equation
end{document}
and some really long equation is needed throughout the whole document (suppose its very important) is there a way of not having to write it out in full every time?
Perhaps some form of copy and pasting (still would rather not have to constantly find the equation in my document and paste it in every time) where I can save the value or something.
Would love the most fastest and easiest approach to this.
Thanks

Can't you name(1)to that long equation and referring it as(1)in the rest of the document?

If it is exactly the same, why not refer to it withref{}(andlabel{}insideequation).

If it is exactly the same, why not refer to it with
ref{} (and label{} inside equation).– Sigur
