Homework Statement




Yeah pretty much new to this and I think I need it



The Attempt at a Solution



YouTube videos, unfortunately, none of them does the justice of explaining it right.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Hmm, I can't think of a good [itex]\LaTeX[/itex] tutorial off the top of my head, but I'm sure there's one out there. I learned [itex]\LaTeX[/itex] by reading through the WikiBook and looking at .tex files. If you know HTML it's not too dissimilar.

What editor do you use? I use Texmaker and, the few times I'm on Windows, I sometimes use TeXniCenter. Don't have much experience with TeXworks.
 
How do you zoom into the tex in TeXWorks? It's too small sometimes.
 
Does anyone know how to upload jpg images or gif images into it?

You can change the font size through the preferences.

I don't have a preference option

Read this: http://ctan.tug.org/tex-archive/info/lshort/english/lshort.pdf. It will tell you most of what you need to know about latex.

Sure you do! Look under the Edit menu.

That tip from page 8 of the TexWorks manual:
