\text{Why } \LaTeX ?

Did you type any document more than 20 pages in word?

Did you try to name the figure and struggle to keep it with the figure?

Did you try to type this?

Did you try keep to your bibliography in a reusable way?

Then you need \(\LaTeX\)

What is a \(\LaTeX\)?

  • \(\LaTeX\) is essentially a markup language.

  • Content is written in plain text

  • Content and the format of the document is separated.

  • The \(\LaTeX\) interpreter reads in a \(\LaTeX\) marked-up file, renders the content into a document and dumps it a new file.

Separation of content and style

\documentclass[a4paper,onecolumn]{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}


%%------Title and Author of the document-----
\title{This is Your First Document}
\author{Type your name}

\begin{document}
\maketitle

\tableofcontents %% This create the table of contents

\section{Introduction}
\lipsum[1]

	\subsection{This is some subsection}
	\lipsum[2]

\section{Conclusion}
\lipsum[8]\\



\end{document}
