\chapter{Introduction}

\section{Getting started}
5
 
6
This is the introductory chapter.  This will give you some
7
ideas on how to use \LaTeX~\cite{lam1994} to typeset your document.
8
Here is a sample quote using the \verb+\munquote+ environment:
9
 
10
\begin{munquote}[~\cite{lam1994}]%
11
\LaTeX{} is a system for typesetting documents.  Its first widely
12
available version, mysteriously numbered 2.09, appeared in 1985.  \LaTeX{}
13
is now extremely popular in the scientific and academic communities, and
14
it is used extensively in industry.  It has become a \emph{lingua franca}
15
of the scientific world; scientists send their papers electronically to
16
colleagues around the world in the form of \LaTeX{} input.%
17
\end{munquote}
18
 
19
The citation at the end is optional --- if you don't need it,
20
then use \verb+\munquote+ without any arguments:
21
 
22
\begin{munquote}%
23
Here is a quote that does not have an associated citation
24
after it.  You can specify the citation before or after the
25
quote manually.%
26
\end{munquote}
27
 
28
By default, all text is double spaced, however, quotes and footnotes
29
must be singled spaced.\munfootnote{This is a single spaced footnote.
30
SGS requires that footnotes be singled spaced and this can be done with
31
the \texttt{$\backslash$munfootnote} command.} The left margin is slightly
32
wider than the right margin.  This is to compensate for binding.
33
 
34
An example mathematical formulae is show in
35
Equation~\ref{eqn:sum}.
36
 
37
\begin{muneqn}{sum}
38
\sum_{i = 0}^{n} i^2
39
\end{muneqn}
40
 
41
A slightly more complicated equation is given in Equation~\ref{eqn:schrodinger}:
42
\munfootnote{Equation taken from the \textsl{Schr\"{o}dinger equation}
43
entry on \textsl{Wikipedia}}
44
 
45
\begin{muneqn}{schrodinger}
46
i\hbar \frac{\partial}{\partial t}\Psi(x,\,t)=
47
-\frac{\hbar^2}{2m}\nabla^2\Psi(x,\,t) + V(x)\Psi(x,\,t)
48
\end{muneqn}
49

\section{Cross References}
51
\label{sec:xrefs}
52
 
53
In addition to using \verb+\ref+ to refer to equations, you can also use
54
it (in conjunction with the \verb+\label+ command) to refer to sections
55
and chapters without hard coding the numbers themselves.  For example,
56
this is Section~\ref{sec:xrefs} of Chapter~\ref{chap:intro}.  You can
57
also refer to Appendix~\ref{apdx:somelabel}, Subsection~\ref{sec:nested}
58
below or any other place that has a \verb+\label+.  You can also use
59
labels to refer to a page.  For example, Chapter~\ref{chap:figtab}
60
starts on page~\pageref{chap:figtab}.
61
 
62
\section{Some Suggestions}
63
 
64
Here are a few recommendations:
65
 
66
\begin{itemize}
67
        \item Before using this template, make sure you check with
68
                your supervisor.
69
        \item MUN's library provides electronic access to some \LaTeX{}
70
                related textbooks which can be read online.  Use
71
                the search term \texttt{latex (computer file)} on the
72
                Library's web page.
73
        \item If you run into a problem, Google may be a helpful resource.
74
        \item Concentrate on content, let \LaTeX{} handle the typesetting.
75
        \item Don't worry about warnings related to:
76
        \begin{itemize}
77
                \item overfull \texttt{hboxes}/\texttt{boxes}
78
                \item underfull \texttt{hboxes}/\texttt{vboxes}
79
        \end{itemize}
80
        These can be corrected with modest rewording of your text prior
81
        to submission of your final copy.
82
\end{itemize}
83
 
84
\section{The \texttt{Makefile}}
85
 
86
You can use \texttt{make} to ``build'' your thesis on the Linux command
87
line\munfootnote{Linux is available on all machines running LabNet in
88
\textsl{The Commons} and in other computer labs on campus.} This will
89
automatically run the \texttt{bibtex} program to create your bibliography
90
and will also re-run \texttt{latex} as necessary to ensure that all
91
references are resolved.  A device independent file (\texttt{thesis.dvi})
92
will be created, by default.  If you are using this template in another
93
environment other than the Linux command line, then the \texttt{Makefile}
94
will probably not be useful to you.
95
 
96
\begin{itemize}
97
\item To make a PostScript copy of your thesis, type the following
98
at the command line:
99
 
100
\texttt{make thesis.ps}
101
 
102
\item To generate a PDF copy of your thesis, run:
103
 
104
\texttt{make thesis.pdf}
105
 
106
\item To generate a PDF/A-1b copy of your thesis (which should
107
satisfy the SGS's ethesis submission requirements):
108
 
109
\texttt{make ethesis.pdf}
110
 
111
\item To remove all the files generated by \texttt{bibtex} and
112
\texttt{latex}, use the command:
113
 
114
\texttt{make clean}
115
 
116
\item To remove the intermediate files, but leave the PostScript
117
and DVI/PDF files intact, use the command:
118
 
119
\texttt{make neat}
120
\end{itemize}
121
 
122
As you add or remove figures, chapters, or appendices to your thesis,
123
make sure you keep the \texttt{Makefile} upto date, too (see the
124
\texttt{FIGURES} and \texttt{FILES} macros in the \texttt{Makefile}).
125
 
126
