\myheading{{\blue  WHAT IS \LaTeX\,?}}

{\bf \red What \LaTeX\, is NOT:} 
\begin{itemize}
\ritem A {\sl \blue word-processor} that allows the user to view a
document as it is created in a ``{\sl \blue what you see is what you
get}'' format (e.g., MS-Word)

\ritem A {\sl \blue word-processor} associated with a certain
{\sl \blue operating system} (e.g., Windows)

\ritem A {\sl \blue word-processor} in which creation of {\sl
\blue highly technical mathematical content} is a big {\sl \blue
pain in the neck}

\ritem A product that the user must {\sl \blue purchase}
\end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red What \LaTeX\, IS:} 
\begin{itemize}
\ritem A {\sl \blue freely-available, powerful typesetting language}

\ritem Supremely {\sl \blue well-suited} to creation of documents
with {\sl \blue heavy technical and mathematical content}

\ritem The standard typesetting language used by {\sl \blue major
publishers of books} in the sciences (e.g., Springer, CRC Press,
Wiley, etc.)

\ritem The standard typesetting language used by most {\sl \blue journals}
in the sciences (including {\it Journal of the American Statistical 
Association}, {\it Biometrics}, etc.) 

\ritem The popular way to produce a {\sl \blue dissertation}
document in the preferred NCSU format (later\ldots)

\end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red What \LaTeX\, IS:} 
\begin{itemize}
\ritem Versions available for UNIX, Linux, Windows, etc.

\ritem The {\sl \blue overwhelming choice} of most people in math,
statistics, physics, computer science, engineering, and many other
disciplines to produce articles, reports, books, letters, visual
presentation materials, and more
\end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}

{\bf \red Basic premise:}
\begin{itemize}
\ritem A \LaTeX\, document must be {\sl \blue processed} in order
for the final version of the document to be viewed

\ritem The user creates a {\sl \blue file} with a {\tt .tex}
extension that contains the text of the document and special {\sl
\blue commands} that control
\begin{itemize}
\item style (e.g., article, letter, report)
\item organization into sections, subsections, etc.
\item mathematical content (e.g., equations, tables, symbols)
\item incorporation of graphics
\item automatic cross-referencing of equations, figures, tables,
references
\citem {\sl \blue And MUCH MORE!}
\end{itemize}

\ritem After the file is processed, the result may be {\sl \blue viewed}
(using {\sl \blue freely available} software) and the file modified as
necessary

\ritem {\sl \blue Postscript} or {\sl \blue pdf} versions of the final
document are easily created

\end{itemize}

\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
\myheading{{\blue  BASIC USAGE AND SYNTAX}}
{\bf \red Some basic steps for creating a document:} On a UNIX or Linux
platform 
\begin{itemize}
\ritem Create a {\tt .tex} file using any text editor
(e.g., {\tt emacs}, {\tt Nedit}); the content should be {\sl \blue
plain text}

\ritem Run the file through the \LaTeX\, program to create a
{\sl \blue device independent} ({\tt .dvi}) file containing
the typesetting instructions (can be viewed with a {\tt .dvi}
previewer)

\ritem Run a program to convert the {\tt .dvi} file to a postscript
file containing the {\sl \blue finished document}, which can be
viewed with a postscript viewer or printed

\ritem If desired, convert the postscript file to pdf format 

\ritem (Alternatively, a program called {\tt pdflatex} can be used
to create pdf documents directly; this is not discussed here)
\end{itemize}

\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red For example:} The {\tt .tex} file used to create these slides
is called {\tt latex1.tex} (available on the class web page)

{\bf \red Commands used to process:} To create the {\tt .dvi}
file and then a postscript file

\begin{verbatim}
stat% add tetex
stat% latex latex1
stat% dvips latex1
stat% ghostview latex1.ps &
\end{verbatim}

\begin{itemize}
\ritem {\tt add tetex} allows access on {\tt unity} to a
comprehensive distribution of \LaTeX\, called {\tt tetex} (optional)

\ritem Here, {\tt ghostview} is used to view the
final document

\ritem Using instead {\tt dvips -P pdf latex1} creates a postscript
file that is optimal if the a pdf file is to be created, e.g.,
using acrobat distiller or the {\tt ps2pdf} utility
\end{itemize}
\begin{verbatim}
stat% distill latex1.ps      OR    stat% ps2pdf latex1.ps
\end{verbatim}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red Structure of a {\tt .tex} file:}
\begin{itemize}
\ritem {\sl \blue Preamble}
\begin{itemize}
\item Specify {\sl \blue document class} (article, report, book,
letter, etc.)
\item Add any ``{\sl \blue packages}'' used (e.g., to import
graphics, create headers and footers, etc.)

\item Specify {\sl \blue margins}, {\sl \blue indentation},
{\sl \blue spacing}, etc.

\item Define ``{\sl \blue new commands}'' (coming up\ldots)
\end{itemize}

\ritem {\sl \blue Document body}
\begin{itemize}
\item The actual document content
\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}

{\bf \red Fun facts:}
\begin{itemize}
\ritem \% symbol is used to document the file or ``{\sl \blue
comment out}'' text; anything to the right of a \% does not appear
in the document

\ritem \LaTeX\, commands start with \verb+\+

\ritem \LaTeX\, is {\sl \blue case sensitive}

\end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red For example:} Here is a sample preamble and document body
for an article (See the web page for a full template file)


\begin{small}
\addtolength{\baselineskip}{-1.5ex}
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass[12pt]{article}       % type size: also 10pt or 11pt
  
% commands to set margins and spacing -- all have defaults

\setlength{\textheight}{9in}        % height of text on a page
\setlength{\textwidth}{6.5in}       % width of text on a page
\setlength{\parskip}{2.3ex}         % space between paragraphs

% commands to invoke packages

\usepackage{graphicx,psfig,epsf}    % no limit to how many

% user-defined newcommands

\newcommand{\betahat}{\hat{\beta}}  % more on this shortly

%  start of document body

\begin{document}

\section{Introduction}              % sectioning command
 
This is the introduction...

\end{document}
\end{verbatim}
\addtolength{\baselineskip}{1.5ex}
\end{small}

\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red Syntax:}  Some commands have arguments in braces \{\,\},
some do not

{\bf \red Some commands with no argument:}
\begin{verbatim}
\ldots, \dag, \ddag, \%, \&, \#, \{ \}, \today, \LaTeX
\end{verbatim}
\ldots, \dag, \ddag, \%, \&, \#, \{ \}, \today, \LaTeX

{\bf \red Commands with arguments:} \verb+\setlength{ ... }+,
\verb+\section{ ... }+, \verb+\subsection{ ... }+, \verb+\hspace{ ... }+,
\verb+\vspace{ ... }+

\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
\myheading{{\blue  MODES AND ENVIRONMENTS}}

{\bf \red Modes:} At any point in a \LaTeX\, file, there is a current
``{\sl \blue mode}'' in effect
\begin{itemize}
\ritem {\sl \blue Paragraph mode} -- the default text mode, with
line wrap.  A space between lines signals the start of a new paragraph

\ritem {\sl \blue Math mode} -- math symbols and commands may be used,
and mathematical expressions result 

\ritem {\sl \blue LR mode} -- ``left-to-right'' mode, lines do not
automatically wrap around
\end{itemize}

{\bf \red Note on math mode:} Math symbols and commands only work in
math mode; if they are used in other modes, an {\sl \blue error}
will result
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red Environments:} Often, there is also an {\sl \blue environment}
in effect that determines how material is displayed -- the basic
structure is

\begin{verbatim}
\begin{environment-name}
...
\end{environment-name}
\end{verbatim}

{\bf \red For example:} The {\tt math} environment
\begin{verbatim}
the linear model \begin{math}Y = X\beta + \epsilon\end{math}.
\end{verbatim}
the linear model $Y = X\beta + \epsilon$.
\begin{itemize}
\ritem The popular shortcuts are to use \verb+$ ... $+ or \verb+\( ... \)+, e.g.
\end{itemize}
\begin{verbatim}
the linear model $Y = X\beta + \epsilon$.
\end{verbatim}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red For example:} Creating a numbered list
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{enumerate}
\item This is the first entry
\item This is the second entry
\item This is the third entry
\end{enumerate}
\end{verbatim}

\begin{enumerate}
\item This is the first entry
\item This is the second entry
\item This is the third entry
\end{enumerate}
\end{slide}


\begin{slide}
{\bf \red Some popular environments:}
\begin{tabular}{lll}
Environment & Mode & Description \\*[-0.05in] \hline
{\tt math} & math & in-text mathematical expressions \\*[-0.05in]
{\tt displaymath} & math & displayed mathematical expressions \\*[-0.05in]

{\tt enumerate} & paragraph & list with numbers \\*[-0.05in]
{\tt description} & paragraph & list with indentation \\*[-0.05in] \hline
{\tt tabular} & LR & align text in columns \\*[-0.05in]
{\tt table} & paragraph & number and position table \\*[-0.05in]

{\tt center} & paragraph & center text \\*[-0.05in]
{\tt mbox} & LR & write text while in math mode \\*[-0.05in]
\end{tabular}

{\bf \red Math:} \LaTeX\, is {\sl \blue tailor-made} for writing involving
high mathematical content! And it's easy!

\ritem {\sl \blue Subscripts, superscripts, roots}
\begin{verbatim}
e^y, x_{ij}, \sqrt{x+y}, \sum^n_{i=1}
\end{verbatim}
$e^y, x_{ij}, \sqrt{x+y}, \sum^n_{i=1}$
\ritem {\sl \blue Greek}

\end{verbatim}
$\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta,\epsilon,\eta,\theta,\lambda$
\begin{verbatim}
\Gamma,\Delta,\Theta,\Lambda,\Omega,\Sigma
\end{verbatim}
$\Gamma,\Delta,\Theta,\Lambda,\Omega,\Sigma$

\ritem {\sl \blue Roofs}
\begin{verbatim}
\hat{\alpha},\tilde{\alpha},\dot{x},\overline{x},\bar{x}
\end{verbatim}
$\hat{\alpha},\tilde{\alpha},\dot{x},\overline{x},\bar{x}$
\end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red Math, continued:}
\begin{itemize}
\ritem {\sl \blue Binary operations}
\begin{verbatim}

\end{verbatim}
$\pm,\times,\div,\cup,\otimes$

\ritem {\sl \blue Relation symbols}
\begin{verbatim}
\leq,\subset,\in,\geq,\equiv,\sim,\approx,\neq,\perp
\end{verbatim}
$\leq,\subset,\in,\geq,\equiv,\sim,\approx,\neq,\perp$

\end{verbatim}
$\forall,\exists,\Re,\sum,\prod,\int$
\end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red Math, continued:}  {\tt textstyle} vs. {\tt displaystyle}
\begin{itemize}
\ritem Math {\sl \blue displayed} as equations may be carried out
using the {\tt displaymath}, {\tt equation}, {\tt eqnarray*}, {\tt
eqnarray} environments

\ritem {\sl \blue Shortcuts} when equations are {\sl \blue not
numbered}: \verb+$$ ... $$+ or \verb+\[ ... \]+; e.g.,
\begin{verbatim}
$$\sum^n_{i=1} x_i^2 (Y_{ij}-z_i \beta)$$
\end{verbatim}
$$\sum^n_{i=1} x_i^2 (Y_{ij}-z_i \beta)$$

\ritem Some symbols appear {\sl \blue differently} depending on
whether they are in the text or displayed; e.g.,
\begin{verbatim}
$\sum^n_{i=1}$      VS.  $$\sum^n_{i=1}$$
\end{verbatim}
$\sum^n_{i=1}\hspace{0.1in}\mbox{\tt VS.}\hspace{0.1in} 
\displaystyle{\sum^n_{i=1}}$

\ritem Can be {\sl \blue overridden} with \verb+textstyle{  }+
and \verb+\displaystyle{  }+
\end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red Math, continued:}  
\begin{itemize}
\ritem {\sl\blue Products, integrals, unions}
\begin{verbatim}
$$\prod^n_{j=1},\hspace{0.1in} \int^\infty_t f(u) du, 
\hspace{0.1in}\bigcup_{A: A \in \Omega}$$
\end{verbatim}
$$\prod^n_{j=1},\hspace{0.1in} \int^\infty_t f(u) du, \hspace{0.1in}
\bigcup_{A: A \in \Omega}$$

\ritem {\sl \blue Special functions}
\begin{verbatim}
$\exp(x), \log y, \sin(k\pi), \min_x f(x)$
\end{verbatim}
$\exp(x), \log y, \sin(k\pi), \min_x f(x)$

\ritem Fractions, partial derivatives
\begin{verbatim}
$$\frac{\exp(x^T \beta)}{1+\exp(x^T \beta)}, 
\frac{\partial u}{\partial x}$$
\end{verbatim}
$$\frac{\exp(x^T \beta)}{1+\exp(x^T \beta)}, \frac{\partial u}{\partial x}$$
\end{itemize}

{\bf \red Note:} Use \verb+\displaystyle+ for fractions; otherwise
they are too small 
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}
{\bf \red Math, continued:} There are different ways to 
present math in {\bf boldface}; here are two
\begin{itemize}
\ritem \verb+$\mbox{\boldmath $X$}$, $\mbox{\boldmath $\Sigma$}$+  \\
$\mbox{\boldmath $X$}$, $\mbox{\boldmath $\Sigma$}$

\ritem \verb+$\mathbf{X}$, $\mathbf{\Sigma}$+ \\

\begin{itemize}
\ritem A {\tt newcommand} is like a ``{\sl \blue shortcut}'' to produce
the expression easily

\myheading{{\blue  CROSS REFERENCES}}
{\bf \red Advantage:} A {\sl \blue built-in} feature of \LaTeX\,
is that it {\sl \blue automatically} keeps track of sections,
numbered equations, pages, and so on
\begin{itemize}
\ritem Sections, equations, tables, figures, pages etc. 
may be {\sl \blue labeled} and referred to by the label 
\ritem If new labeled entities are added, \LaTeX\, {\sl \blue renumbers}
them automatically
\ritem It is even possible to generate a {\sl \blue table of
contents} and {\sl \blue index} for a document
\ritem To set up cross references correctly, must process
a document {\sl \blue twice}
\end{itemize}
\begin{small}
\hspace*{-0.5in}\verb+LaTeX Warning: Label(s) may have changed. Rerun to get cross-references right.+
\end{small}
