LaTeX is an amazing system for creating documents that is used widely in many sciences
and almost universally in computer science.  In this seminar you will learn the basics
you need to get started using LaTeX and some hints as to why you should bother. LaTeX
lets you focus on the content and structure of your document and then produces a
beautiful and precisely layed out document that looks professional.  LaTeX allows
arbitrarily complex mathematical expressions, tables, figures, lists, chapters, tables
of contents and bibliographies to be created easily, all without the need for endless
menus and wizards. And it will never crash on you for no reason.  Using LaTeX also
allows you to manage all of your references in one place using a universal format and
cite them in your documents easily.  When you need to write a paper or thesis there
will always be a LaTeX style sheet available to make sure your document fits the
standards precisely.  And did I mention it can create stunning presentations too?
So don't be a hero, don't use Word for your thesis, learn LaTeX now, before its too late.
