A \(\LaTeX{}\) worksheet update
This post is really just an update to a previous post on \(\LaTeX{}\) for beginners, so I won’t repeat the things that are in that post. I recently gave the session that the original worksheets had been designed for for a second time, and decided to add a few new things to the worksheets (and fix a couple of typos). The main change to the worksheet is the addition of a new, more advanced, section on including graphics in \(\LaTeX{}\). The new worksheet is available at the following link.

If you’d like to check your source code for the worksheet against mine then you can get the source tex file used for the worksheet here:

The image of the Durham University logo that is used in the worksheet is available below. If you want to build the source tex file from above, then make sure this image is saved in the same location as the tex source – the image should be called “DU-logo.pdf”.
This post is based on a presentation I gave about \(\LaTeX{}\). The slides for the presentation are available here:

If you’d like to see how these slides were created using Beamer, the source code for the slides is available here:

This worksheet formed the main exercise for a two hour beginner session on \(\LaTeX{}\) given to first year undergraduates taking a course in mathematics at Durham University. If you are involved with teaching \(\LaTeX{}\) then you are welcome to use this sheet freely as detailed by the license below. If you do use the sheet, either with or without modification, I’d be keen to hear from you either via a comment below or an email.
