+\section{Symbols}
+
+As you might expect, \LaTeX{} excels at typesetting symbols. Below is a \textbf{short} list of the symbols available in \LaTeX{}. Keep in mind that they may have different commands in text mode than in math mode, and that they will also appear differently in those two modes due to the different fonts those modes use.
+
+For additional information, consult the \textit{very} extensive ``Comprehensive \LaTeX{} Symbol List'' which you can find at \kref{https://ctan.org/pkg/comprehensive?lang=en}{https://ctan.org/pkg/comprehensive?lang=en}.
