LaTeX

In this exercise you should follow instructions to construct a LaTeX document. Here is a good additional source into basic functionalities of LaTeX.

1. First page of your document should contain a title, author name and date. Also remember to add a documentclass in the beginning of the document.
2. On second page of the document you should add table of contents.
3. On third page add page numbering starting from the second page, not on the front cover or table of contents page.
4. Working on the third page, create a section with title “Maths” and add there a subsection “Pythagorean theorem”. Under the subsection, display the pythagorean equation and explain briefly what do the variables a, b, and c represent.
5. Practise test formatting in your previous answer by bolding each variable when you explain what they mean.
6. Working with your previous answer, add a function f(x) = x^2 and center it.
7. Add another section “Figure” where you should add a graph or an image.
8. Create a table that is centered.
9. Add another section “Referencing” and using BibTeX generator, add references for the graph/image you used in 3. and achieve a reference list in the end of your document.

Here you can see an example of a built document.

You get 3 submissions for this exercise for the following files:

Scientific posters

Question 1

Which of the following claims are true?

Your poster should contain very detailed information about your research.

The more color is added to the poster, the better.

A desirable structure is to start from the upper left corner and end in the lower right corner.

Using a fancy font is a good way to make your poster more unique.

Presenting information in the poster should start with an abstract.

Large text is better than small text, even if it means leaving something out.
