# LaTeX Workshop

LaTeX is a document preparation system which is widely used in academics. Though it was invented for writing mathematics “beautifully” during 1985, nowadays, LaTeX is used not only to write documents in mathematics but also physics, computer science, engineering, economics, psychology, social and political sciences. LaTeX is being widely used to create research papers, presentations, publish books and large documents. Over a period, LaTeX has evolved, and now it can draw complicated molecules in organic chemistry, useful in writing complex mathematical equations, list bibliography in various ways at the stroke of a feather, handle complicated languages and scripts such as Sanskrit, Tamil and Chinese, write and edit dramas and poems. In contrast to Microsoft Word and Pages, LaTeX can handle large documents very easily. In India, mathematicians and physicists have been using LaTeX for a long time.

In this extensive workshop, we wish to introduce and teach LaTeX to non-math and non-physics people also. Starting from the ABC of the programme, we shall introduce the advance techniques. Staying loyal to the birth-purpose of LaTeX, we shall discuss important techniques for LaTeX mathematics. LaTeX for Indian languages is another area which is not popular in India itself; we shall teach LaTeX for India languages also. We shall have three hours of lecturing and two hours of practicing sessions, every day.
