LaTeX
- How to install LaTeX on Windows or Macs:
- Download and install MiKTeX. You need internet access for the installation.
- Make sure you have Adobe Reader DC installed.
- Download and install an editor, such as TeXMaker. Configure the PDFLateX option.
- How to install LaTeX on Linux:
- Skip Step 1 above: LaTeX should already be installed.
- Make sure you have Adobe Reader DC (or another PDF reader) installed.
- There is a version of TeXMaker for Linux. Configure the PDFLateX option.
- Some examples of LaTeX files:
- barebones.tex | barebones.tex with more examples
- BA.tex | To run the .tex file you also need to download the images: Boole.jpg | Huntington.jpg | Stone.jpg
- The same as a Beamer presentation: BAtalk.tex | BAtalk.pdf | To run the .tex file, in addition to the three images above, you will need: JMM.PNG
- A multiple choice quiz
- A PDF fillable form: PDF_Form.tex
- $\LaTeX$ is part of MediaWiki and other software on the Internet\[\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^2}=\frac{\pi^2}{6}\]
- Resources:
- Wikibook LaTeX
- LaTeX Tutorials - A Primer
- The Not So Short Introduction to $\LaTeX$
- A LaTeX crash course
- The standard book reference is: Leslie Lamport, LaTeX: A Document Preparation System, Addison-Wesley, 2nd Edition, 1994.
