The $\LaTeX$ typesetting system (pronounced "Lay-Tek" by most, or "Lah-Tek" by some) is widely used to produce well-formatted mathematical and scientific writing. With $\LaTeX$, it is very easy to produce expressions like \[\sqrt{\frac {a^2+b^2+c^2}3} \geq \frac {a+b+c}3 \geq \sqrt[3]{abc} \geq \frac 3 { \frac 1a + \frac 1b + \frac 1c } .\] Nearly every serious student of math and science will use $\LaTeX$ frequently. Through these web pages, you will learn much of what you'll need to express math and science like a pro.
