Tutorial for writing lab reports in LaTeX and Overleaf

So further to my previous overleaf post. This is a tutorial to show you how to make a simple lab report. It is about an hour long. But seems to cover quite a lot of ground. I am happy to help people with LaTeX, I would recommend using the forum (see links below), you should be able to tag me in with @PaulSutton.

There are adverts every so often, but you can just skip these.

TeX Live 2022

TeX Live 2022 is now available. This is the latest release of the popular LaTeX typesetting system, software, related software, packages, documentation and other related material(s).

Please give it a day or so, so that mirrors can be populated etc.

I will have a copy available at the next Paignton Library STEM Group on April 9th. The CTAN resources are useful, even if you are using websites such as Overleaf.

Paignton Library STEM Group – April 2022

The April STEM group meeting will take place on 9/4/2022. As with previous events, this will be a mix of Science, Technology, Engineering subjects along with discussions and a look at projects brought along to the event.

I have added items to the upcoming page to keep each blog post tidy.

Schedule

Timings : IT Suite 11 –> 15:00

Harding will elaborate somewhat on the amplifier circuit. It may be useful to bring a pocket calculator, as we will be looking at time constants.

I can do a quick introduction to Voltage Dividers.

Please check back here for updates.
