TeX and LATeX: Drawing and Literate Programming (McGraw-Hill Series on Programming Tools for Scientists & Engineers) - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

TeX is a powerful language for typesetting text, and LATeX provides features for manipulating the content and layout of manuscripts. Both TeX and LATeX have become essential to the scientific and engineering communities because of their unique ability to handle mathematical formulas and calculations in ready-to-publish documents. This book introduces device-independent tools for drawing figures and creating macro programs from within TeX and LATeX. Intended for mid-level audience, this volume explores the concepts behind the creation of macros, offers tutorials on how to use them effectively, and provides all the related source code in handy appendices. The book provides a 3.5" disk containing two software packages - DraTeX and AlDraTex additionally includes ready-to-use templates for quickly creating a number of standard types of charts and diagrams. With these tools, readers will be able to quickly and easily add illustrations to their TeX documents. A third program - ProTeX - allows readers to use TeX and LATeX as systems that will support literate programming. With this tool, computer programs and macros can be easily written in a form that can be understood and comfortably read by the average person.
