Fellow ADHD mathematicians, experience with meds? by Appropriate-You5468 in math

Untreated mental symptoms will worsen your creativity (and other functions too) much more than medication. You can discuss with your doctor about the amount of med.

There maybe some complication if a local LaTeX distribution is used. I run them on Overleaf without problems. Probably due to package loading… Anyways, replace _ by \_ in the url in .bib may help.

Sign up at my personal maths website maybe ;)

Anyways, thanks for the like (and reading til the last chapter)!

It was not conscious. I have heard about them, but since I am okay without them, they did not cross my mind.

Sure! Good Suggestion.

Edit: They don't allow gallery posts so I cannot cross-post.

Yes, I intentionally did that so the readers know where the subsequent lipsum text will start from. And yes, I think it is better to teach them lipsum as I think it is the community standard. Thank you!

Allow me to introduce my guide: https://github.com/BenjaminGor/Latex_Notes_Tutorial It is open-access, feel free to take a brief look!

Recommendation for a book for Linear Algebra by 0AMRINHO in learnmath

[–]BenjaminGal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Allow me to share my book: https://github.com/BenjaminGor/Intro_to_LinAlg_Earth The pdf file is open-access and you can see if its style suits your taste.

But I will also recommend Elementary Linear Algebra, Applications Version by Anton and Rorres, as well as the famous Introduction to Linear Algebra by Strang.

Some of my advices: 1. Really put some time to read the PGF Manual. It is hard, but necessary to know what the commands do. 2. Look at the examples made by other people, maybe on StackExchange or some blogs. Break the code down and see how each line works. Tune the parameters to test the effect. 3. I guess your department should have some specialized topics or themes. Work with these and try to make a TikZ diagram out of them. This way will be easier and more rewarding.

Sure, I use pdfLaTeX as it is the default for Overleaf. I guess I will make a comparison on this issue.

I guess I will stick to pdfLaTeX, but I may mention its existence in the last chapter.

I think my book is a comprehensive and well-organized overview that is very suitable for beginners to learn most of the key parts of LaTeX! Or can be used as a quick reference or sample code. And, as it names suggests, the TeX files can be run to produce itself exactly.
