Can I use \def to crash LaTeX?

OpenStudy (adozenbabydogs):

Example <><><><><> \def\a{\b} \def\b{\a}

OpenStudy (adozenbabydogs):

\( \def \a {\b} \def \b {\a} \)

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

nope XD

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Define "crash" in LaTeX terms. You won't be able to disable LaTeX for everyone.

he's gone...

OpenStudy (nobrainiachere):

In the side of \(\TeX\) That OpenStudy uses, the `def` command, is used for macro.

OpenStudy (nobrainiachere):

\(\Huge\sf{Macros}\) Macros are used to make multiple of something without writing it out all over again, it is also used to make commands. For example, you can type `\(\def\OS{OpenStudy}\OS\)` and it will come out as \(OpenStudy\) and so now, all you need to type, is `\(\OS\)` and it will come out as \(OpenStudy\)
