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. LaTeX:Commands. From AoPSWiki This page introduces various useful commands for rendering math in LaTeX, as well as instructions for building your own commands.

Math Commands Here are some commonly used math commands in LaTeX. Exponents and Subscripts Make exponents in LaTeX with ^ and subscripts with _ as shown in the examples below.

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 Basics for Students. 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 Donald Knuth. It takes a suitably prepared computer file and converts it to a form which may be printed on many kinds of printers, including dot-matrix printers, laser printers and high-resolution typesetting machines. LaTeX is a set of macros for TeX that aims at reducing the user's task to the sole role of writing the content, LaTeX taking care of all the formatting process.

LaTeX/Tables - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks. Tables are a common feature in academic writing, often used to summarise research results. Mastering the art of table construction in LaTeX is therefore necessary to produce quality papers and with sufficient practice one can print beautiful tables of any kind. Keeping in mind that LaTeX is not a spreadsheet, it makes sense to use a dedicated tool to build tables and then to export these tables into the document. Basic tables are not too taxing, but anything more advanced can take a fair bit of construction; in these cases, more advanced packages can be very useful. However, first it is important to know the basics. Once you are comfortable with basic LaTeX tables, you might have a look at more advanced packages or the export options of your favorite spreadsheet. Calc2latex.
