This page shows: It's not hard to draw reasonably nice graphs in TeX, without recourse to \special's, postscript or pdf inclusions. An advantage to doing so is that your dvi file won't need to be accompanied by additional files, and won't need anything beyond a dvi reader to be viewable and printable. Sometimes, as with proposals submitted to NSF via FastLane, this can make a big difference.

LaTeX:Math - AoPSWiki

From AoPSWiki This article will detail how to work with math mode in LaTeX and how to display equations, formulas, and mathematical expressions in general. Math Mode LaTeX uses a special math mode to display mathematics. To place something written in TeX in math mode , use $ signs to enclose the math you want to display. http://www.artofproblemsolving.com/Wiki/index.php/LaTeX:Math

Lesson 5:Typesetting Math in LaTeX

http://crab.rutgers.edu/~karel/latex/class5/class5.html Let's take a look at how to handle some typical problems in using LaTeX to typeset mathematics. We have already looked at various math environments. Fractions In order to get fractions in-line, you have a choice of using the solidus to get a fraction like 1/2, or of using the math mode command \frac{a}{b} , which will give a small fraction with numerator a and denominator b for in-line formulas. Using the "displayed fraction" command \dfrac{a}{b} gives an upright fraction, and makes the line a little larger vertically to provide sufficient vertical space for the displayed fraction.

Getting to Grips with LaTeX - LaTeX Tutorials by Andrew Roberts

Here are some tutorials I have written for getting up to speed with this excellent document processing system. Funnily enough I wouldn't consider myself an expert, per se, but I'm learning all the time. I recall finding it quite taxing when I started to learn LaTeX, which is why I have started these tutorials. However, I hope that my experience plays to your advantage because I cover sort of questions and problems I had when I first learning LaTeX which are probably typical for most beginners.

LaTeX - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks

This is a guide to the LaTeX markup language. It is intended to form a useful resource for everybody from new users who wish to learn, to old hands who need a quick reference. TeX and LaTeX TeX is a computer program for typesetting documents, created by D. E. Knuth.

LaTeX/Tables - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks

In academic writing, tables are a common feature, often for summarizing results from research. It is therefore a skill that needs mastering in order to produce quality papers. In the end you can print beautiful tables of any kind. Keep in mind that LaTeX is not a spreadsheet, just as it is not a vector graphics tool. So it makes sense to use a dedicated tool to build specific content, then to export it. Basic tables are not too taxing, but you will quickly notice that anything more advanced can take a fair bit of construction.
