Why you want to learn LaTeX
• Very powerful control of document
generation, particularly large technical
documents
• Minimizes the drudgery of formatting,
numbering, and referencing
• Disadvantage:
– Steep Learning Curve

The LaTeX Process
1. Create a text file (with your favorite text
editor) with LaTeX commands
2. “Compile” or “Build” your document using
the LaTeX program
3. Display resulting Document
4. Continue writing and go to 1 until finished
5. Convert Document to Postscript or PDF

Emphasizing words
(fish.tex)
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\emph{My mother} is a fish.
\end{document}

Underlining words
(fish.tex)
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\emph{My mother} is a
\underline{fish}.
\end{document}

Making references in LaTeX
(fish.tex)
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\emph{My mother} is a
\underline{fish} \cite{WF}.
\begin{thebibliography}{99}
\bibitem{WF}
William Falkner, \emph{As I Lay
Dying}
\end{thebibliography}
\end{document}
15
Rolando V. Raqueño

Need to compile the document
twice
• Because we are using symbolic
references, e.g., \cite{WF}, a second
pass is necessary
• The second pass will resolve references

\left(x_{i} - \bar{x}\right)^{2}}
{n-1}

Report document style
(main.tex)
\documentclass{report}
\title{Assignment 2 for SIMG726}
\author{Rolando V. Raque\~no}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\tableofcontents
\end{document}

Create the following chapters
chapter_sum.tex
chapter_mean.tex
chapter_sd.tex
33
Rolando V. Raqueño
Friday, July 17, 2015
chapter_mean.tex
\chapter{Mean} \label{C:Mean}
\begin{equation} \label{E:mean}
\bar{x} =
\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n}x_{i}}
{n}
\end{equation}
34
Rolando V. Raqueño
Friday, July 17, 2015
chapter_sum.tex
\chapter{Sum} \label{C:Sum}
\begin{equation} \label{E:sum}
s = \sum_{i=1}^{n}x_{i}
\end{equation}
35
Rolando V. Raqueño
Friday, July 17, 2015
chapter_sd.tex
\chapter{Standard Deviation}
\label{C:SD}
\begin{equation} \label{E:sd}
\sigma =
\sqrt{\frac{\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}
\left(x_{i} - \bar{x}\right)^{2}}
{n-1}}
\end{equation}
36

Modify main.tex to include
chapters
\documentclass{report}
\title{Assignment 2 for SIMG726}
\author{Rolando V. Raque\~no}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\tableofcontents
\include{chapter_sum}
\include{chapter_mean}
\include{chapter_sd}
\end{document}
37

38
Rolando V. Raqueño
Friday, July 17, 2015
Modify chapter_sd.tex
\chapter{Standard Deviation}
\label{C:SD}
…
\end{equation}
We can see that equation \ref{E:sd}
uses equation
\ref{E:mean} to compute the mean
and that the \emph{Mean}
function uses equation \ref{E:sum}
both of which are defined
in Chapter \ref{C:Sum} and
\ref{C:Mean}, respectively

Including image graphics into
you LaTeX document
• Need to convert your image graphics into
EPS (encapsulated postscript).
– For images, use pnmtops, e.g.
% pnmtops MyCat.pgm > MyCat.ps
• Need to include an extension package to
LaTeX called “graphics” using command
\usepackage{graphics}
• N.B. In CIS systems, following example works
for latex but not for pdflatex

Image Graphics Example
(image.tex)
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphics}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\includegraphics{MyCat.ps}
\caption{This is My Cat}
\label{F:MyCat}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
