180 \begin_layout Plain Layout
181 Hint: Section titles should probably stand out more
189 \begin_layout Standard
190 The basic philosophy of \SpecialChar LyX
191 is that you should worry about the content of what
192 you're writing and not the form.
195 \begin_layout Standard
196 1.1 How \SpecialChar LyX
200 \begin_layout Standard
202 uses \SpecialChar LaTeX
203 , a document preparation system designed by Leslie Lamport in 1985.
204 It, in turn, was built up from a typesetting language called \SpecialChar TeX
206 by Donald Knuth in 1984.
208 is designed around a philosophy similar to that of \SpecialChar LyX
210 Leslie Lamport once said (see reference [1])
211 \begin_inset Note Note

215 Hint: Probably, this CITATION REFERENCE shouldn't be

236 The function of typographic design is to help the reader understand the
238 For a document to be easy to read, its visual structure must reflect its
240 Quotations and computer programs, being logically distinct structural elements,
241 should be distinguished visually from one another....
242 Since \SpecialChar LaTeX
243 can't understand your prose, you must explicitly indicate the logical
244 structure by typing special commands....
245 As you are writing your document, you should be concerned with its logical
246 structure, not its visual appearance.

264 1.2 Why \SpecialChar LyX
268 \begin_layout Standard
270 can be useful to more people than \SpecialChar LaTeX
272 It's considerably easier to learn, because you don't need to learn \SpecialChar LaTeX
274 is practically a programming language).

284 word processors, except that \SpecialChar LyX
286 \begin_inset Quotes eld
289 What you see is what you mean
290 \begin_inset Quotes erd
294 In this way, it combines the ease of use of word processors with the power
295 of \SpecialChar LaTeX
297 This is a Good Thing.
298 Also, the file format is platform independent.
299 Best of all, it's FREE!

308 \begin_layout Standard
310 has many features which make writing documents easier.

332 Here's a list of just a few.

337 worries about margins, and footnote numbering for you
340 \begin_layout Standard
342 makes it simple to write and edit mathematical formulae

346 For a more philosophical discussion of why \SpecialChar LyX
347 is better than lots of other
348 word processors, see Section 1.2, which can be found on page 1.

455 My favorite equation is the solution to a quadratic equation.
456 If ax^2+bx+c=0 (eq.1), then x= -b + or minus the square root of b^2-4ac

462 Another favorite equation is the basis of calculus: f'(x) is defined as
463 the limit as deltax goes to zero of f(x+deltax) - f(x) divided by deltax
