Basic Philosophy \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Standard \lang hebrew רמז: כותרות חלקים מן הסתם צריכות לבלוט יותר \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The basic philosophy of LyX is that you should worry about the content of what you're writing and not the form. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard 1.1 How LyX does it \end_layout \begin_layout Standard LyX uses LaTeX, a document preparation system designed by Leslie Lamport in 1985. It, in turn, was built up from a typesetting language called TeX, created by Donald Knuth in 1984. LaTeX is designed around a philosophy similar to that of LyX. Leslie Lamport once said (see reference [1]) \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Standard \lang hebrew רמז: מן הסתם ההפניה הביבליוגרפיה הזאת ) \lang english citation reference \lang hebrew ( לא צריכה להכתב כסתם מספר. מה אם בסופו של דבר הספר של למפורט יהיה הספר השני בביבליוגרפיה? \end_layout \end_inset : \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset The function of typographic design is to help the reader understand the author's ideas. For a document to be easy to read, its visual structure must reflect its logical structure. Quotations and computer programs, being logically distinct structural elements, should be distinguished visually from one another.... Since LaTeX can't understand your prose, you must explicitly indicate the logical structure by typing special commands.... As you are writing your document, you should be concerned with its logical structure, not its visual appearance. \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Standard \lang hebrew רמז: זה ציטוט, או באנגלית \lang english Quote \lang hebrew . \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard 1.2 Why LyX is better \end_layout \begin_layout Standard LyX can be useful to more people than LaTeX. It's considerably easier to learn, because you don't need to learn LaTeX (which is practically a programming language). LyX is basically like other \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset What you see is what you get \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset word processors, except that LyX is \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset What you see is what you mean \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . In this way, it combines the ease of use of word processors with the power of LaTeX. This is a Good Thing. Also, the file format is platform independent. Best of all, it's FREE! \end_layout \begin_layout Standard 2. Features of LyX \end_layout \begin_layout Standard LyX has many features which make writing documents easier. (After all, why else would you want to use it? \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Standard \lang hebrew רמז: המשפט בסוגריים יהיה יותר טוב בהערת שוליים. \end_layout \end_inset ) I'm VERY EXCITED \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Standard \lang hebrew רמז: הדגש! \end_layout \end_inset to talk about them. Here's a list of just a few. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard * LyX worries about margins, and footnote numbering for you \end_layout \begin_layout Standard * LyX makes it simple to write and edit mathematical formulae \end_layout \begin_layout Standard For a more philosophical discussion of why LyX is better than lots of other word processors, see Section 1.2, which can be found on page 1. \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Standard \lang hebrew רמז: מן הסתם, ההפניות ) \lang english cross-references \lang hebrew ( האלה לא צריכות להיות סתם כתובות. מה אם נשנה את מספרי החלקים? \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard 3.

Math Stuff \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Standard \lang hebrew רמז: כל עניני המתמטיקה האלה צריכים להיות במוד מתמטיקה! \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard My favorite equation is the solution to a quadratic equation. If ax^2+bx+c=0 (eq.1), then x= -b + or minus the square root of b^2-4ac all divided by 2a (eq. 2). \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Another favorite equation is the basis of calculus: f'(x) is defined as the limit as deltax goes to zero of f(x+deltax) - f(x) divided by deltax (eq. 3). \end_layout \begin_layout Standard ------------------------------------------------ \end_layout \begin_layout Standard REFERENCES \end_layout \begin_layout Standard [1] Lamport, Leslie.
