CS830:
Lecture Notes
Guidelines
- You should email Charles your scribe notes
within 3 days of your lecture. Send both the LaTeX source and the
PostScript file. We will make the notes available to the class at that
time via our webpage.
Templates:
- header.tex: You should \include this in
your tex document. It defines some simple environments (e.g., example,
claim, theorem, exercise). Take a look at the file to see the list
of pre-defined classes.
- lecture00.tex: Start your lecture notes
from this template. It has some examples
of the new environments we've defined.
- You might need
the fancybox.sty as a sty file.
