Homework Submission

Homework solutions are to be submitted through CMS. If your submission includes hand-drawn figures, you can submit a scan of your solutions. (Please make sure the scan is legible.)

Typesetting

You can submit your typeset homework solutions in PDF format. You can use any software you like. Here are some suggestions:

LaTeX

Standard software for mathematical documents. Available LaTeX distributions depend on your operating system: miktex (Windows), mactex (OS X), or texlive (Linux).

Once you have installed LaTeX on your computer, you can create LaTeX documents in an editor. Here are some suggestions: (For each platform, the editors are roughly ordered by ease-of-use.)

• All platforms: lyx, texworks, texmaker, emacs+auctex, vim+vimlatex
• Windows: texniccenter, winedt
• OS X: texshop, textmate

Some references about LaTeX:

• Wikibook on LaTeX (with section on mathematics)
• LaTeX Tutorials: A Primer
• The not so short introduction to LaTeX

Microsoft Word

Recent versions of Microsoft Word have good support for mathematical equations. (See this blog post and the references in it.)
