The document preparation system LaTex is a powerful
program for typesetting. LaTeX was developed over 30 years ago to aid in document preparation.
Like TeX, it is a markup language that takes control sequences and converts them into symbols and instructions
having no normal key.
It is particularly useful in
creating documents with mathematical text, such as formal papers, theses, and textbooks.
This talk will
be interactive, allowing students to work with LaTeX on simple exercises.
