Overview

For all homeworks, Python will be used for codes and LaTeX for your report. The first homework is nothing but reading the documentation about Python libraries and practising LaTeX for writing a document.

Assuming you have already installed LaTeX and set up to compile a LaTeX document, the first thing you should do is to compile the Homework1_Tutorial.tex. After complie, open the compiled pdf file (maybe named Homework1_Tutorial.pdf). There is a Python tutorial that you may want to follow.

After reading the documentation, you are ready to answer the questions in the Homework1_Questions.tex. Answer the questions in the LaTeX document, compile it and submit the compiled pdf file.

Editing LaTeX

You need two type of programs for editing LaTeX documents: LaTeX compiler and LaTeX editor.

The LaTeX compiler compiles .tex file to create a pdf file. We recommend following LaTeX compiler:

The LaTeX editor is an optional tool, like Visual Studio Code for Python. Although you can edit LaTeX with text editor (e.g., Notepad, VSCode), using LaTeX editor is far more convenient. Among free LaTeX editors, we recommend TexStudio, which is an open-source cross-platform application (available for all Windows, Mac and Linux). Make sure that you first install the compiler, and then install the editor.

Another option is to use an online LaTeX editor/compiler such as Overleaf.
