## Description

latexify_py is a Python to LaTeX converter and mathematical expression generator. It functions as a code to math renderer that transforms Python source code, functions, and abstract syntax trees into formatted LaTeX mathematical expressions.

The library focuses on code to equation conversion and mathematical expression rendering. It translates programming logic and algorithmic operations into professional LaTeX notation for use in technical documentation, academic papers, and research.

The system provides capabilities for technical document automation and the ability to pretty-print functions, allowing mathematical expressions to be displayed directly within interactive environments.
