We experiment with style

Turns out its fun actually.

I have this in italic
I have this emphasized
Its flushed right.

Maths

Lets look at the following equation we solve in LATEX. We want to solve for real values of x
in the following equation:
2x2 + 3(x 1)(x 2) = 0
Note that

3 6
=0
4 8
2x2 + 3(x 1)(x 2) = 2x2 + 3(x2 3x + 2)
= 2x2 + 3x2 9x + 6
= 5x2 9x + 6
5x2 9x + 6 = 0

Solving we have:


9+
81 120
x=

x3 + y 3 = 0
Recall from previous day

The solution to

x2 + y 2 = 0

(1)

x3 + y 3 = 0

(2)

x = 5 is x = 25

Now suppose we want to evaluate the sum

Graphics Part

We can introduce .jpg/.pdf/.png/.gif images in our document after saving it in the same
directory.

Boxes

5.1

Normal

I can create basic boxes for text

like this
. Notice that theres a 2in wide
space with like this in the middle of it.
If I want to put a box around the text, I can use a frame box. The result looks
like this
.
I can also justify the text to the right within a box
like so or like so
We can also use quick versions of these. We can just do this or
this to create a quick box thats exactly the size of what we put in it.

5.2

Advanced

&&
I like using parbox to create
funny little boxes of text all
over my page.Aligned with
bottom
CURRENT LINE. Aligned with top.

Centered.

You probably got a few Overfull or

Underfull warnings when you typeCURRENT LINE set this. Sometimes narrow boxes
will do that; if youre happy with
the output, dont sweat it.
