Here is a zip file with some Latex examples
You will have to process them with some version of Latexwhich handles pdf files. I use "pdflatex"
After you have installed a latex system on your computer, put the zip file into an empty folder.
The "Output" subfolder contains the pdf files which pdflatex produces.
The "macros.tex" file is a set of Latex macros that I use to simplify typing Latex source files. You will not be able to process the enclosed source files without it.
Your first set of Exercises is included here. You can see it in the "Output" subfolder.

from other sets of lecture notes, so the page numberings do not have
the number 14 in them. They involve 17 and 18.
