+first-latex-doc
+
+This document is for you if you don't know anything about TeX or
+LaTeX, but want to see what is involved. For instance, maybe you
+are a graduate student who has been advised to try writing document
+using LaTeX.
+
+It brings you through writing a document of a couple of pages,
+involving both plain text and mathematics, and should only
+take a couple of hours. At the end you will have an idea if
+the system could help you, and there are a couple of recommendations
+for tutorials.

+
+This is for people considering using \LaTeX{}.
+This is not a tutorial.
+Instead,
+it takes you through making a first document.
+If this quick taste leaves you wanting more
+then you are ready to go through a tutorial.
+
+Because this is a just a taste, we will skip many things.
+And for those things that we discuss, we will see only one way to do them.
+For instance, in the first section there are a number of ways to get
+the software but we will just name one.
+This approach has the disadvantage of leaving you without a full idea
+of what the system entails,
+but has the advantage that in a couple of hours
+you should finish with some idea of whether
+\LaTeX{} is a tool that can help you.
+
+
+
+
+
+\section{Get the software}
+
+\LaTeX{} is the way that we will use the \TeX{} suite of
+programs.
+So you must download those programs (if you don't already have them).
+Here we will stick with downloads that are free.
+
+If your computer system is Windows then go to the
+\href{http://www.miktex.org}{MiK\TeX} site.
+Click on the link under ``Download'' and follow the directions.
+If you have a Unix-like system, such as Linux, then go to the
+\href{http://www.tug.org/texlive/}{\TeX{} Live}
+site and click on the ``Downloads'' link.
+If you have a Macintosh then use the
+\href{http://www.tug.org/mactex/}{Mac\TeX} site
+(this is a version of \TeX{}~Live, with some Mac-specific add-ons).
+
+All three downloads are large, but all three install easily (of course,
+you must follow the on-screen directions; in particular on
+a Unix-like system you will need to alter your \texttt{PATH}).
+They come with an immense amount of stuff.
+But here we are just trying \LaTeX{} out so we will skip past lots of things.
+
+
+
+
+\subsection{Use an editor}
+
+We don't write \LaTeX{} with a word processor.
+A word processor combines many of the jobs that must be done to
+produce a document, such as entering and moving the text, formatting it
+into paragraphs, producing a PDF file, etc.
+In a \TeX{}-based system those jobs are done separately.
+
+Instead, we write \LaTeX{} with an editor,
+a program that is specialized at moving text around in a computer file.
+There are many editors,
+including some specifically for writing \LaTeX{}, but
+our documents are small so almost any editor will do.
+Just to give a couple of names:
+on a Windows system you can use Notepad,
+while on a Unix-like system or a Mac you can use Emacs.
+
+
+
+
+
+\section{Get it to work}
+
+With an editor, you can write a first document.
+Make a new directory
+named \nolinkurl{latex-first}
+(your system might use the term ``folder'').
+Open a terminal window and in that window, change into that directory
+(possibly you would use the command \verb!cd latex-first!).
+
+Move back to your editor window.
+Open the new file
+\nolinkurl{latex-first.tex}
+in the \nolinkurl{latex-first} directory.
+Enter the text below, line for line, as it is written
+(without spaces on the left margin).
+\begin{lstlisting}[style=latex]
+\documentclass{article}
+\usepackage{geometry}
+\usepackage{fancyhdr}
+\usepackage{amsmath,amsthm,amssymb}
+\usepackage{graphicx}
+\usepackage{hyperref}
+
+\begin{document}
+Hello world!
+\end{document}
+\end{lstlisting}
+Many of those things are boilerplate~--- lines that I put into every
+\LaTeX{} file that I open.
+We'll ignore what they mean for a while to focus on getting
+output.
+
+Save that file.
+Go back to your terminal window and enter this command.
+\begin{center}
+\verb!pdflatex latex-first!
+\end{center}
+If that worked then you should see perhaps forty lines of text,
+starting with something like
+\begin{lstlisting}
+This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.1415926-1.40.9 (Web2C 7.5.7)
+ %&-line parsing enabled.
+entering extended mode
+\end{lstlisting}
+and ending with something like this.
+\begin{lstlisting}
+Output written on latex-first.pdf (1 page, 6195 bytes).
+Transcript written on latex-first.log.
+\end{lstlisting}
+If you had errors, see the subsection below.
+
+You can view the output \nolinkurl{latex-first.pdf} with
+whatever program your system uses to view PDF files.
+\begin{center}
+ \includegraphics[scale=.35]{latex-first.png}
+\end{center}
+
+\subsection{Handle errors}
+
+You have to be careful to type the lines as written.
+Some seemingly small typing changes give large changes in the
+result, including causing a document to not be processable.
+So that you can be sure there isn't a typing discrepancy,
+this document comes bundled with a source of
+\nolinkurl{latex-first.tex} that you can run.
+
+If your run ends with a question mark, then you can type `\verb!x!' and
+then hit `Enter' to get out.
+You will still be able to see any error message that the system prints.
+
+\LaTeX's error messages can be hard to understand.
+If you know someone with some experience, of course that's great.
+If not, I've had good luck with putting the error message into a
+search engine.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+\section{Get more out}
+
+The first document is short so that it has fewer parts to go wrong.
+But we've already seen some basics.
+The file you type mixes text and commands.
+The commands for \LaTeX{}, such as \verb!\begin{document}!,
+start with a backslash
+and sometimes have arguments contained in curly braces
+(or, we'll see below, sometimes square brackets).
+
+The document we've made starts out with margins, typeface, etc., specified
+in the class \verb!article!.
+We've modified the behavior in small ways by bringing in some
+packages such as \verb!graphicx!, which will allow us to include
+graphic files.
+
+For the next step,
+we'll make a longer and more complex document.
+Start the same way:
+make a new directory
+named \nolinkurl{latex-second},
+open a terminal window, and change into the new directory.
+
+Move back to your editor window.
+Open a new file
+\nolinkurl{latex_second.tex}
+in the \nolinkurl{latex-second} directory.
+Enter the text below.
+\begin{lstlisting}[style=latex]
+\documentclass{article}
+\usepackage{geometry}
+\usepackage{fancyhdr}
+\usepackage{amsmath,amsthm,amssymb}
+\usepackage{graphicx}
+\usepackage{hyperref}
+\usepackage{lipsum}
+
+\begin{document}
+This is some preamble text that you enter yourself.
+
+Below is a command that will automatically generate seven paragraphs
+of text that is commonly used for examples in this field.
+
+\lipsum[1-7]
+\end{document}
+\end{lstlisting}
+Save that file and run
+\verb!pdflatex latex_second!.
+Your system's PDF reader should show something like this.
+\begin{center}
+ \includegraphics[scale=.35]{latex-second-a.png}
+\end{center}
+
+If you have used a word processor then you will have noticed the
+difference between that tool and running \LaTeX{}.
+Here the program does not move the text around as we type it,
+rather we tell \LaTeX{} what we want and then it does that.
+This applies to the commands that we see below.
+For instance,
+we tell \LaTeX{} to make a section and the system
+handles the font changes, vertical space, etc.
+
+In your editor, change the file \nolinkurl{latex-second.tex} to say this.
+\begin{lstlisting}[style=latex]
+\documentclass{article}
+\usepackage{geometry}
+\usepackage{fancyhdr}
+\usepackage{amsmath,amsthm,amssymb}
+\usepackage{graphicx}

+This is some preamble text that you enter yourself.
+
+\section{Text for the first section}
+\lipsum[1]
+
+\subsection{Text for a subsection of the first section}
+\lipsum[2-3]
+
+\subsection{Another subsection of the first section}

+
+\section{The second section}
+\lipsum[6]
+
+\subsection{Title of the first subsection of the second section}
+\lipsum[7]
+\end{document}
+\end{lstlisting}
+Here is the resulting output.
+\begin{center}
+ \includegraphics[scale=.35]{latex-second-b.png}
+\end{center}
+Note that numbering of the sections and subsections is done automatically.
+How to change how they look is beyond this document, but the point is that
+the system generates those for you.
+
+With those, we can illustrate cross-references.
+Change the document's text to this.
+\begin{lstlisting}[style=latex]
+\begin{document}
+This is some preamble text that you enter yourself.
+
+\section{Text for the first section}
+\lipsum[1]
+
+\subsection{Text for a subsection of the first section}
+\lipsum[2-3]
+\label{labelone}
+
+\subsection{Another subsection of the first section}
+\lipsum[4-5]
+\label{labeltwo}
+
+\section{The second section}
+\lipsum[6]
+
+Refer again to \ref{labelone}.
+Note also the discussion on page \pageref{labeltwo}
+
+\subsection{Title of the first subsection of the second section}
+\lipsum[7]
+\end{document}
+\end{lstlisting}
+Run
+\verb!pdflatex latex-second!
+and look at the PDF file.
+Notice that the references that we just entered didn't work~--- they appear
+as question marks.
+As \LaTeX{} runs it saves labels to a file.
+So, when you run a file with a first-time label it has not yet been saved.
+The solution is to run \verb!pdflatex latex-second! again.
+The result looks like this.
+\begin{center}
+ \includegraphics[scale=.35]{latex-second-c.png}
+\end{center}
+(When you are writing a real document, because you are fixing typos, etc.,
+you end up running \LaTeX{} a number of times anyway, so having to
+rerun the command isn't an issue in practice.)
+
+We'll finish by adding footnotes, a
+table of contents, and a bibliography.
+Edit \nolinkurl{latex-second.tex} to say this.

+\section{Get math}
+
+Many people interested in \LaTeX{}
+want to include mathematics.
+The examples below are from \cite{ConcreteMath}.
+(We'll stop giving the complete listings of the input files,
+and we'll stop showing screenshots to instead just give the output directly.)
+
+Add this text, for instance before the bibliography.
+\begin{lstlisting}[style=latex]
+There are $\binom{2n+1}{n}$ sequences with $n$ occurrences of
+$-1$ and $n+1$ occurrences of $+1$, and Raney's lemma
+tells us that exactly $1/(2n+1)$ of these sequences have all
+partial sums positive.
+\end{lstlisting} % page 360
+It produces this output.
+\begin{center}
+\begin{minipage}{0.8\textwidth}
+There are $\binom{2n+1}{n}$ sequences with $n$ occurrences of
+$-1$ and $n+1$ occurrences of $+1$, and Raney's lemma
+tells us that exactly $1/(2n+1)$ of these sequences have all
+partial sums positive.
+\end{minipage}
+\end{center}
+This input
+\begin{lstlisting}[style=latex]
+Elementary calculus suffices to evaluate $C$ if we are clever enough
+to look at the double integral
+\begin{equation*}
+ C^2
+ =\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} e^{-x^2} \mathrm{d}x
+ \int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} e^{-y^2} \mathrm{d}y\;.
+\end{equation*}
+\end{lstlisting} % page 485
+gives this.
+\begin{center}

+\end{equation*}
+\end{minipage}
+\end{center}
+And this source
+\begin{lstlisting}[style=latex]
+Solve the following recurrence for $n,k\geq 0$:
+\begin{align*}
+ Q_{n,0} &= 1
+ \quad Q_{0,k} = [k=0]; \\
+ Q_{n,k} &= Q_{n-1,k}+Q_{n-1,k-1}+\binom{n}{k}, \quad\text{for $n,k>0$.}
+\end{align*}
+\end{lstlisting} % page 250
+produces this result.

+\end{align*}
+\end{minipage}
+\end{center}
+The \verb!\usepackage{ams...! line in our source files
+allow us to use the American Math Society's packages.
+For example, the \texttt{align*} above is available because we
+used \texttt{amsmath}.
+
+We also have access to the AMS's symbols.
+A simple example is that we can get $\mathbb{Z}$ with the command
+\verb!$\mathbb{Z}$!.
+One more example shows a long arrow, and some other useful commands
+\begin{lstlisting}[style=latex]
+Therefore
+\begin{equation*}
+a\equiv b\pmod{m}
+\qquad\Longleftrightarrow\qquad
+a\equiv b \pmod{p^{m_p}}\quad\text{for all $p$}
+\end{equation*}
+if the prime factorization of $m$ is $\prod_p p^{m_p}$.
+\end{lstlisting} % page 126
+that produce this.

+\end{center}
+(The
+\href{http://mirror.ctan.org/info/symbols/comprehensive/symbols-letter.pdf}{\textit{Comprehensive \LaTeX{} Symbols List}}

+
+The \verb!amsthm! package gives us access to theorem environments,
+but those go beyond the scope of this document.

+
+\section{Got it?}
+You now have a feel for \LaTeX.
+To go on,
+see the tutorial
+\href{http://mirrors.ctan.org/info/lshort}{\textit{The Not-So-Short Guide to \LaTeX 2e}}
+or the
+\href{http://www.tug.org.in/tutorials.html}{Indian \TeX{} Users Group's tutorial}.
+
+If what you've seen seems very different from what you are used to,
+and you'd like an overview of the advantages of \LaTeX{},
+see
+\href{http://www.tug.org/TUGboat/Articles/tb22-1-2/tb70heff.pdf}{Why \TeX?}.
+
+When you take up \LaTeX{} for real-life documents, you need
+to choose a good editing program.
+In particular, people often use systems where the editor is integrated with
+other components such as an output view, a spell checker that works
+with \LaTeX{}, etc.
+For advice, ask \LaTeX{} users that you know or click around on the Internet,
+for instance on
+\href{http://groups.google.com/group/comp.text.tex/topics?gvc=2}{\url{comp.text.tex}}.
+(For what it is worth, I use \verb!emacs! with the AUC\TeX{} add-on.
+On the Macintosh, many people use
+\href{http://www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/}{\TeX Shop}.
+A cross-platform editor, developed for the \TeX{} Users Group
+with the goal of simplicity, is
+\href{http://www.tug.org/texworks/}{\TeX{}works}.)

+There are $\binom{2n+1}{n}$ sequences with $n$ occurrences of
+$-1$ and $n+1$ occurrences of $+1$, and Raney's lemma
+tells us that exactly $1/(2n+1)$ of these sequences have all
+partial sums positive.
+
+Elementary calculus suffices to evaluate $C$ if we are clever enough
+to look at the double integral
+\begin{equation*}
+ C^2
+ =\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} e^{-x^2} \mathrm{d}x
+ \int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} e^{-y^2} \mathrm{d}y\;.
+\end{equation*}
+
+Solve the following recurrence for $n,k\geq 0$:
+\begin{align*}
+ Q_{n,0} &= 1
+ \quad Q_{0,k} = [k=0]; \\
+ Q_{n,k} &= Q_{n-1,k}+Q_{n-1,k-1}+\binom{n}{k}, \quad\text{for $n,k>0$.}
+\end{align*}
+
+Therefore
+\begin{equation*}
+a\equiv b\pmod{m}
+\qquad\Longleftrightarrow\qquad
+a\equiv b \pmod{p^{m_p}}\quad\text{for all $p$}
+\end{equation*}
+if the prime factorization of $m$ is $\prod_p p^{m_p}$.
