**$\LaTeX Assignment$** CS 190 Due: Sun Sep 18 at 11:00 PM For this assignment you will use $\LaTeX$ to create a "short autobiography." Your autobiography can focus on whatever you'd like (it can be fiction if you'd like), though we'd encourage you to use this as a chance to share something about yourself with your CS190 Professor. You do not have any word or page count requirements, but you do need to include each of the features listed in section Requirements. # $\LaTeX$ Advice - [Get LaTeX - Mac OS, Windows, Linux](https://www.latex-project.org/get/) - Examples - [Overleaf Templates](https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates) - [TeX showcase](https://www.tug.org/texshowcase/) - [LaTeX Showcase](https://www.learnlatex.org/en/extra-01) - [LaTeX Typesetting](https://www.latextypesetting.com/showcase) - A Visual Studio Code extension called [LaTeX Workshop](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=James-Yu.latex-workshop) # Requirements Your document must at minimum include the following: - A title section containing a `\title`, `\author`, and `\date` (see [Your first LaTeX document](https://latex-tutorial.com/tutorials/first-document/)) - An `\abstract` (see [formatting abstracts](https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Creating_a_document_in_LaTeX#Basic_formatting:_abstract.2C_paragraphs_and_newlines)) - At least one `\section` - A figure (see [figures tutorial](https://latex-tutorial.com/tutorials/figures/)) - A table (see [tables tutorial](https://latex-tutorial.com/tutorials/tables/), [Small Guide to Making Nice Tables](https://people.inf.ethz.ch/markusp/teaching/guides/guide-tables.pdf), and [Clear Off the Table](https://www.darkhorseanalytics.com/blog/clear-off-the-table/)) - A list (see [lists tutorial](https://latex-tutorial.com/tutorials/lists/)) - Text that references (`~\ref`) each of your figures, tables, and lists - A set of at least four bibliographical references - You must use a separate `.bib` file - You must cite (`~\cite`) each reference in text This [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/Wookai/paper-tips-and-tricks) has quite a few tricks that you should consider if you are writing a larger document. # $\LaTeX$ Packages Here are some of Prof Clark's favorite (personally required) packages: - [BibLaTeX](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/biblatex) - [booktabs](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/booktabs/) - [hyperref](https://ctan.org/pkg/hyperref) - [lmodern](https://ctan.math.illinois.edu/fonts/lm/doc/fonts/lm/lm-info.pdf) - [microtype](https://ctan.org/pkg/microtype) - [siunitx](https://ctan.org/pkg/siunitx) - [subcaption](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/subcaption) Prof Clark uses many of these in his [proposal and cover letter templates](https://github.com/anthonyjclark/latex-classes). # Submission Instructions Submit the following to [gradescope](https://www.gradescope.com/): - Your pdf - Your tex file(s) - Your bib file
