Technical Writing Samples
This project contains technical writing samples that are written in LaTeX. I prefer LaTeX because it is much more efficient than commercial or open-source word processing applications, and it is text-based, which means that it can be tracked using Git. Additionally, updates to documents are made simple through branching in Git.
The only binary files here are illustrations in either .jpg or .png format.
All the files here use packages which should be contained in any standard LaTeX install. You are encouraged to download and compile them.
