5 1 Chapter 1 Chapter Title Welcome and Thank YouWelcome to this LaTeX Thesis Template, a beautiful and easy to use template for writ-ing a Thesis using the LaTeX typesetting you are writing a Thesis (or will be in the future) and its subject is technicalor mathematical (though it doesn t have to be), then creating it in LaTeX is highlyrecommended as a way to make sure you can just get down to the essential writingwithout having to worry over formatting or wasting time arguing with your is easily able to professionally typeset documents that run to hundreds orthousands of pages long.

6 With simple mark-up commands, it automatically sets outthe table of contents, margins, page headers and footers and keeps the formattingconsistent and beautiful. One of its main strengths is the way it can easily typesetmathematics, evenheavymathematics. Even if those equations are the most horri-bly twisted and most difficult mathematical problems that can only be solved on asuper-computer, you can at least count on LaTeX to make them look Learning LATEXLATEX is not aWYSIWYG(What You See is What You Get) program, unlike word pro-cessors such as Microsoft Word or Apple s Pages.

7 Instead, a document written forLATEX is actually a simple, plain text file that containsno formatting. You tell LATEXhow you want the formatting in the finished document by writing in simple com-mands amongst the text, for example, if I want to useitalic text for emphasis, I writethe\emph{text}command and put the text I want in italics in between the curlybraces.

Chapter Title HereMaking the effort now means you re not stuck learning the system when what youreallyneed to be doing is writing your A Short Math Guide for LATEXIf you are writing a technical or mathematical Thesis , then you may want to readthe document by the AMS (American Mathematical Society) called, A Short MathGuide for LaTeX .

9 It can be found online here: the Additional Documentation section towards the bottom of the Common LaTeX Math SymbolsThere are a multitude of mathematical symbols available for LaTeX and it would takea great effort to learn the commands for them all. The most common ones you arelikely to use are shown on this page: can use this page as a reference or crib sheet, the symbols are rendered aslarge, high quality images so you can quickly find the LaTeX command for the symbolyou LaTeX on a MacThe LaTeX distribution is available for many systems including Windows, Linux andMac OS X.
