The forum is having problems with the backslash.

Using double backslash
dd(0)=encodeDigit(d(0)\1000)
dd(1)=encodeDigit(d(1)\100)
dd(2)=encodeDigit(d(2)\10)

Using single backslash
dd(0)=encodeDigit(d(0)1000)
dd(1)=encodeDigit(d(1)100)
dd(2)=encodeDigit(d(2)10)


It works OK in the preview but not when saving the post.
It causes problems when the backslash is used in code

That backslash is proving difficult to deal with. Its used as a escape character, and the next character is what's escaped. If you put a space between them, its fine.

In that example, are you using the \ as a divide symbol?
