History

Beamer is created as a LaTex document.Tex - computer software for producing nicely printed output.

History

Professor Donald E. Knuth, at Stanford Uni-

versity, was planning to publish a series of bookson computing. He discovered that the classicalprocess of typesetting books was no longer vi-able and its various replacements were rapidly

declining in quality and so he decided to take ayear off to rectify that omission. He got hookedand the year turned into ten. The centerpieceof his final solution was the program TEX.

(Waud 2003:164)

It is like a good cooking: you do not know how good it is until youtaste it!

Donald E. Knuth said: Tex is intended for the creation ofbeautiful books.

Word and Tex

Wordprocessor is sometimes described as an acronym WYSIWYG:

What you see is what you get.

In Latex when you are typing you do not get distracted by how itlooks. The only formatting you do is to tell Latex I want it to bemy title. You type \title{Mytitle}
