So, What exactly is LaTeX ? It seems to be coding of some sort?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. it's like coding

OpenStudy (nobrainiachere):

\(\LaTeX\) is used for two things on OS one is to help people in math because some of the symbols in \(\LaTeX\) can help with that another way it is used is artistically

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you type in a code/LaTeX, and it shows up different things depending on what you type. it can be used for almost anything, and it could just be for \(\large\color{violet}{FUN}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey which doc u on??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

elysse try not to spam other people's posts please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx lots..

OpenStudy (nobrainiachere):

molly is right another example of using it artistically is this \(\bbox [10pt, grey, border:5pt solid black]{\Huge\cal\color{black}{\bigstar\ \huge\rlap{\color{black}{NoBrainiacHere}}{\color{white}{\:NoBrainiacHere}}\ \color{white}\bigstar}}\) which is in a way my OS signature

OpenStudy (anonymous):

light.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, so how hard is it to learn...I already know HTML

OpenStudy (nobrainiachere):

its not hard at all

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's not that hard. i learned \({\LaTeX}\) in five minutes.

OpenStudy (nobrainiachere):

Same. want me to teach you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, at least i learned how to type a latex sentence in 5 mins....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you start with a \ ( and always ends with a \ ) (without the space in between of course

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so when you put in in there, it'll look like \(hi\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when you type \(multiple words\) you add a ~ in between the words so \(they~separate.\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and if you want to change the font size do something like \large or \Huge. remember that capitalization also affects the code.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you want to do color type \color{whatever color you want}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but when you put the other codes in, you have to add { and } before and after your text.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(\color{red}{i}\) \(\color{orange}{♥}\) \(\color{yellow}{a}\) \(\color{lightgreen}{p}\) \(\color{lightblue}{p}\) \(\color{purple}{l}\) \(\color{pink}{e}\) \(\color{solidblack}{s!!!!}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question marks are supposed to be a \(\color{orange}{♥}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
