LaTeX information:
LaTeX is a typesetting program that produces textbook quality documents. It is especially adept at handling mathematical formulas and technical writing. Unlike a word processor, LaTeX does not produce WYSWIG documents, but requires the user to give explicit typesetting commands. While this makes getting started a little more challenging, it also gives extraordinary control over the look of the document. Beginners may wish to try TeXnicCenter (for Windows) or TeXshop (for Mac), which both have a GUI, or LyX, which is considered a WYSIWIM (what you see is what you mean) interface similar to a word processor. More advanced users may wish to install MiKTeX and use a text editor (like Emacs). All of these programs are freely available under GNU General Public License. Thorough directions for installation are available.The LaTeX project maintains links to a number guides to using LaTeX. I used The (no so) Short Introduction to LaTeX2e to get started, and still find it to be a handy reference for many things LaTeX.
Computer Algebra Systems:
The program Derive is available in the Mathematics computer rooms (KC 126, 204 and 307. Derive tutorials are available from Texas Instruments.You may also consider checking out Maxima, a free, open source CAS. The website contains the download, documentation and tutorials.
