2 Latex Tips

2.1 Citations

This template uses the natbib package. Use the command \cite for citations
in parentheses. Use the command \citet for citations in text. Use the command
\citeyearpar for the year only, in parentheses. For example,

... as in \LaTeX\ \cite{Lamport86} ...


... and \citet{Knuth86} claims ...
... and Knuth’s later work \citeyearpar{Knuth86} claims ...

will result in

... as in LATEX Lamport (1986) ...


... and Knuth (1986) claims ...
... and Knuth’s later work (1986) claims ...

You can change the template to use another citation style if you prefer. The only
requirement is that citations appear in the style “accepted in your field.”

2.2 Math

Use \log and \exp, not log and exp.

Blank lines start a new paragraph - don’t start a new paragraph after an equation in
the middle of a sentence. Use

\[ eˆ{\pi i} = -1 \]
where $i=\sqrt{-1}.$

NOT

\[ eˆ{\pi i} = -1 \]

where $i=\sqrt{-1}.$

in order to avoid having the word “where” indented as the beginning of a new para-
graph.

Use \left( and \right) to get parens that are the right size for whatever is
inside them.

For a variable or function name consisting of more than one letter, use
\mathit{func} or \mathrm{func}. Otherwise, latex interprets this as f ∗u∗n∗c.

For angled brackets to denote tuples, use \langle and \rangle, not < and >.

2.3 Text

TeX assumes that a period ends a sentence unless it follows an uppercase letter. Use
Smith et al.\ claim, not Smith et al. claim. At the end of a sentence,
use consisting of an NP\@., not consisting of an NP..

“et al.” is “et al.”, not “et. al.” or “et. al”
