== Some useful La Te X code ==

Aligning and spacing
$$ \begin{align} 3+x &=4 && \text{we are trying to solve for } x\\[6pt] x &=4-3 && \text{Subtract 3 from both sides}\\ x &=1  && x \text{ must be one} \end{align} $$

Boundaries of integration
Standard way:

\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-ax^{2}} \, dx = \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{a}} \qquad \text{and} \qquad \iiint_{\mathbb{R}^3} \langle \Psi | \Psi \rangle \, dx\, dy\, dz = 1 $$

Preferred way:

\int\limits_{0}^{\infty} \frac{\sin x}{x} dx = \frac{\pi}{2} \qquad \text{and} \qquad \iiint\limits_{\mathbb{R}^3} e^{-a(x^2 + y^2 + z^2)} \, dx\, dy\, dz = \left(\frac{\pi}{a}\right)^{3/2} $$

Nice quotes
If you don't talk the way they understand, you'll not become their friend.

Rise above oneself and grasp the world. I don't try to do very much that is obviously flashy. I try to focus on the fundamentals of the material. I very much enjoy trying to get a complete grasp of the subject I'm trying to teach so that I can present it in a clear, consistent and thorough way.
