# Pourquoi ne puis-je pas utiliser \bullet sans obtenir une erreur de syntaxe ?

Le `\bullet` La commande est définie pour être utilisée en mode math, vous devez donc écrire `$\bullet$` (ou `\(\bullet\)`) pour utiliser cette commande dans votre texte. Si vous utilisez `\bullet` en dehors du mode math, elle générera l'erreur [`Il manque un $ inséré`](/latex/fr/erreurs-latex/25-missing-inserted.md).

Alternativement, la `\textbullet` commande peut être utilisée en dehors du mode math sans avoir besoin de signes dollar ou `\(...\)`, comme le montre l'exemple suivant :

```latex
\documentclass{article}
\title{Une marche aléatoire dans \LaTeX}
Équipe Overleaf
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section{Au commencement...}
Cet exemple montre l'utilisation de \verb|\bullet| en mode math, produisant \(\bullet\) et de \verb|\textbullet| en dehors du mode math, produisant également \textbullet.
\end{document}
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://overleaf-pro.ayaka.space/latex/fr/questions-et-reponses/87-why-can-t-i-use-bullet-without-getting-a-syntax-error.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
