BSTA 670 – Statistical Computing Lecture 21: A Brief Introduction to LaTeX
What are TeX and LaTeX? • TeX (tau epsilon chi) is a computer language designed for typesetting, especially math. • TeX was developed by Donald Knuth, a Mathematician/Computer Scientist, and others in late 1970s. He was dissatisfied with the typesetting from the publisher of his book “The Art of Computer Programming”. The development took about 10 years. • TeX is an interpreter language, accepting commands based on markup language, written in ascii files.
What are TeX and LaTeX? • TeX is portable, producing the same output on any computer. • TeX is a very low level language directing where and what to place on a page. For example: move a specific distance to the left, right, up, or down ; change font; write a string of words, possibly containing math expressions, to a paragraph, etc.
What are TeX and LaTeX? • TeX processes the input commands and produces a device independent file (dvi). This file then gets translated for the particular output device; screen, pdf, postscript (.ps). • TeX requires a set of fonts. Donald Knuth also developed a font creation program called Metafont. All TeX installations have a basic set of fonts, other fonts can be generated or added, included commercially available fonts.
What are TeX and LaTeX? • Macro commands can be defined to build the low level commands into high level command interfaces. For example, a macro to create a title page and to set up sections and subsections, etc. • LaTeX is a variation of TeX that is easier to use than basic TeX. It is essentially a macro package that runs using TeX. The macros provide many useful features including the ability to create documents with sections and chapters, bibliography macros.
What are TeX and LaTeX? • Essentially, LaTeX provides easier document style implementation, while also providing the ease of math typesetting. • LaTeX also provides the ability to include graphics in documents, although in some implementations of LaTeX it is not easy to do so. • LaTeX style files have been created to format common document features, such as paragraphing, margins, footnotes, headers, etc.
What are TeX and LaTeX? • LaTeX style files include: letter, book, article, and report. • A style file can be written for any use such as for formatting a Ph.D. thesis. The thesis formats for Penn are available at: http://www.math.upenn.edu/grad/thesisstyle.html • TeX/LaTeX is available for Windows, Unix, Linux, and Mac OS. It can be obtained for free or commercially.
What are TeX and LaTeX? • The Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN) is the most comprehensive site. http://www.ctan.org/ • Some info on LaTeX: http://www.latex-project.org/ • Free versions include: Windows (proTeXt, MiKTeX), Unix/Linux (TeX Live), Mac (gwTeX). There are many others. • Commercial versions: Windows (PCTeX, TurboTeX), Mac (Textures).
What are TeX and LaTeX? • TeX is not WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get). • MS WORD and WordPerfect are WYSIWYG. • In WYSIWYG text processors: what you see on the screen as you edit is the final product, formatting commands are not visible. • LaTex and Tex are not word processors. Rather, they are text formatters. The formatting commands are visible (in a command file). The command file defines the structure of the final product and a compiler is needed to process the commands.
LaTeX • LaTeX has two modes for the typed characters: Math Mode and Text Mode. The mode determines how LaTeX responds to the entered text. • Default is text mode. • Math mode is indicated by surrounded the math phrase with a $ on each end, e.g. $\alpha$. The math symbol \alpha will only work in math mode.
LaTeX document layout \documentclass{class} \begin{document} .... your text goes here .... \end{document} Class can be article (publication article), report (document with chapters), letter, book.
Example of LaTeX Input and Output \documentclass{article} \begin{document} This is a simple example of the use of \LaTeX{}. Files must contain special commands that declare the \emph{document class}, most often ``article’’, and that denote the beginning and end of the document itself, \emph{begin} and \emph{end}. The \emph{preamble} is the initial part of the file, between the document class command and the beginning of the document. This may contain commands specifying font information, defintion of new commands, author and title information, or other commands. The text of the document goes between the begin and end commands. Paragraphs are indicated by blank lines. Segments of the text that are to printed in \textbf{boldface} {\bf font}, {\it italics}, or \underline{underlined} are simply surrounded by the appropriate \emph{environment}. \end{document} simple.tex
Font Sizes \documentclass[12pt]{article} \begin{document} There are various font sizes that can be accessed. Others can be created in needed. {\tiny tiny} \\ {\scriptsize scriptsize} \\ {\footnotesize footnotesize} \\ {\small small} \\ {\normalsize normalsize} \\ {\large large} \\ {\Large Large} \\ {\LARGE LARGE} \\ {\huge huge} \\ {\Huge Huge} \end{document} font_sizes.tex
Font Sizes \documentclass[12pt]{article} \begin{document} \LARGE You can easily change {\normalsize from} one font {\huge to another font size}. This \small can be done {\footnotesize for a specific set of text} or from \large a specific point onward. \end{document} font_sizes2.tex
Formatting in LaTeX • Sections • \section{…} = 1. This is section • \subsection{…} = 1.1 This is subsection • \subsubsection{…} = 1.1.1 This is subsubsection • \appendix - changes to numbering for appendix • \chapter{…} - Used with book and report documents • Title page: • \title{…} • \author{…} • \maketitle - Display Title and Author
Formatting in LaTeX • \tableofcontents - Creates TOC • \listoftables - Creates LOT • \listoffigures - Creates LOF • \label{marker} – Marker for object in document. • \pageref{marker} - Displays page no. of marker. • \ref{marker} - Displays section location of marker.

We are interested in $p_0$ = P(true disease $|$ unexposed) and $p_1$ = P(true disease $|$ exposed). Usual risk measures such as the risk difference $p_1 - p_0$ or relative risk $p_1/p_0$ can be based on estimates of $p_0$ and $p_1$. \end{document} article_ex1.tex

Example 1 of Math in LaTeX \documentclass[12pt]{article} \begin{document} Suppose X represents the lifetime random variable and T the truncation random variable for Group~1 and Y represents the lifetime random variable and Z the truncation random variable for Group~2. Also, suppose that X, Y, T, and Z are all independent. The pair $(X,T)$ is observed if and only if $X \leq T$ and the pair $(Y,Z)$ is observed if and only if $Y \leq Z$. Under this sampling scheme, only the pairs in Group~1 satisfying $x_i \leq t_i$, denoted $(x_1, t_1), \ldots, (x_{n_1}, t_{n_1})$, are observed. Also, only the pairs in Group~2 satisfying $y_j \leq z_j$, denoted $(y_1, z_1), \ldots, (y_{n_2}, z_{n_2})$, are observed. \end{document} math_ex1.tex

Define \begin{displaymath} U_{ij} = U(X_i,Y_j) = \left\{ \begin{array}{lr} {+1} & \hspace{2ex} X_i > Y_j \\ { 0} & \hspace{2ex} X_i = Y_j \\ {-1} & \hspace{2ex} X_i < Y_j \end{array} \right. \end{displaymath} The Mann-Whitney statistic is defined as \begin{displaymath} U = \frac{1}{n_1 n_2} \sum_{i=1}^{n_1}\sum_{j=1}^{n_2} U_{ij} \end{displaymath} The Mann-Whitney statistic, $U$, and Wilcoxon statistic, $W$, can be shown to be related according to $ W = 2^{-1} \left[ n_1 n_2 U + n_1(n_1+n_2+1) \right] $. It should be noted here that the Mann-Whitney statistic is sometimes defined with $U_{ij}$ being an indicator function taking on values 1 if $X_i>Y_j$ and 0 otherwise. Exact moments for the Wilcoxon statistic can be derived through the use of permutation theory. \end{document Example 3 of Math in LaTeX math_ex3.tex

Thus, the performance of pharmacoepidemiologic studies using these large databases usually requires verification of diagnoses reported in the database \cite{Carson1994}, which may be accomplished, for example, by obtaining medical records of the presumptive cases identified in the database. Brenner and Gefeller \cite{Brenner1993a} examined a similar design for estimating relative risks, but they used the same sampling fraction for verifying the disease status of exposed and unexposed presumptive cases. \bibliography{bibtex_ex_refs} % Refers to file: bibtex_ex_refs.bib \end{document} bibtex_ex.tex
