LaTeX Resources

The three main written assignments for this course must be submitted in LaTeX format. You can find a lot of information about LaTeX on the WWW. For example, you can read this introductary page at the UofM (in PDF format). There's a very good, if somewhat expensive, book that is not mentioned in that document: A Guide to LaTeX, by Kopka & Daly.

If you have a Macintosh computer, you may find this web site useful.

Here are template files you can use to help you write your assignments:

First assignment, the abstract
Second assignment, the short paper

If you are nervous about LaTeX, you can simply download these files and just change the body of the text to what you want it to be.
