Now that I tend to do all my assignments in LaTeX (despite the fact that it’s by no means a time saver, but only serves to make it pretty), a couple of new benefits have been noted. I’m studying for my STAT 831 midterm and going over the most recent assignment, which was only handed in this past week; hence, we don’t have it back yet. Previously in such cases, I’d photocopy my assignment before handing it in so I could have it to review. Now I can just bring it up on my computer. Second of all, I can easily correct typos that I come across after the fact. There’s probably not much point to this, since I don’t intend to print off a new copy, but it would bother me knowing that I had the ability to fix it and just left it as is.
Well, that was a few minutes of procrastination from studying. Better get back to it, although I don’t have a whole lot left.
