| + | One of the most useful programming languages is TEX, constructed by | ||
| + | Donald Knuth, and developed by Leslie Lamport into LATEX, the standard | ||
| + | for mathematical typesetting over the last 25 years. If you want to | ||
| + | be able to typeset your mathematical work, or even to typeset any of | ||
| + | your assignments, | ||
| + | |||
| + | I will give a lecture/ | ||
| + | the LATEX programming language. If you have installed a version of TEX on your laptop, bring it | ||
| + | along. On the MAC, install TEXshop. On machines running Microsoft operating systems, install MikTEX. Both of these versions | ||
| + | of TEX are freely available on the Web. | ||
