\frametitle{Objectives}
\label{sec-2}

At the end of this tutorial, you will be able to,
\begin{itemize}
\item Get acquainted to LaTeX.
\item Know why we prefer LaTeX ??
\item Know about the advantages and disadvantages of typesetting documents using the LaTeX approach.
\item Have a description, of a typical work flow; which uses LaTeX to typeset documents.
\item Recognize and differentiate between LaTeX commands, LaTeX comments and special characters, spacing and actual document content.
\item Create and compile a very simple LaTeX document.
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}

  \begin{block}{{\LaTeX} - Introduction}
    \begin{itemize}
      \item Typesetting program
       \begin{itemize}
         \item What is typesetting?
       \end{itemize}
      \item Excellently Typeset Documents - specially Math
      \item Anything from one page articles to huge books
      \item Pronounced \emph{Lah-tech} or \emph{Lay-tech}
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Why \LaTeX?}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Excellent visual quality! 
  \item Handles the typesetting; Lets you focus on content
  \item Makes writing math extremely simple
  \item It is a standard -- widely used in Scientific community
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{block}{}
    \[\tilde{N}_{\mathbf{x}}\times \mathbf{r}(\mathbf{x}) f_{1k}(\mathbf{x},t) - \frac{1}{2} \tilde{N} \tilde{N}:\mathbf{BB}^{T}P(\mathbf{x},t) = -m_{k}f_{1k}(\mathbf{x},t) + 2 \mathop{\mathbf{\aa}}_{j=1}^{K} f_{1j}(\mathbf{x},t)m_{j}P_{k|j} \]
  \end{block}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Why \LaTeX?}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item {\LaTeX} is a document based mark-up
  \item Mark-up $\rightarrow$ a system of annotating text, adding extra
    information to specify structure and presentation of text
  \item Document based markup $\rightarrow$ you don't have to worry
    about each element individually 
  \item Allows you to focus on content, rather than appearance.
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Advantages of using \LaTeX }
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Easy availablity of professional templates.
  \item Typesetting complex formulae in a convenient environment.
  \item Can start typesetting with very little effort.
  \item Presence of a lot of add-on packages.
  \item Encourages creation of well structured texts.
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Disadvantages of using \LaTeX }
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Designing whole new layout is difficult.
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{\LaTeX \ input file format}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item \LaTeX takes ASCII text file as input.
  \item We can compile \LaTeX files into DVI,Postscript or PDF files.
  \item \alert{Note:} \typ{latex} vs. \typ{pdflatex} 
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}



\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Commands, Comments and Special Characters }
  \begin{itemize}
  \item {\LaTeX} is case sensetive.
  \item Commands begin with a \typ{\\}
  \item Environments have a \typ{\\begin} and \typ{\\end} 
  \item Any content after the \typ{\\end\{document\}} is ignored
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Anything that follows a \typ{\%} symbol till end of the line
    is a comment 
  \item Special characters (\typ{\~ \# \$ \^ \& \_ \{ \}}) are escaped by a
    \typ{\\} 
  \item \typ{\\} symbol is inserted using \typ{\\textbackslash}
    command
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

  \frametitle{Typesetting a minimal document}
  Write the sample code  into the file \typ{temp.tex}

    \begin{document}
     Hello world!
     \end{document}

\frametitle{Evaluation}
\label{sec-9}


\begin{enumerate}
\item Convert the temp.dvi created during the course of this tutorial to temp\_1.ps using the dvips command. Verify that the two files indeed look the same.
