The Comprehensive LATEX Symbol List The Comprehensive LATEX Symbol List Scott Pakin <[email protected]>∗ 22 September 2005 Abstract This document lists 3300 symbols and the corresponding LATEX commands that produce them. Some of these symbols are guaranteed to be available in every LATEX 2ε system; others require fonts and packages that may not accompany a given distribution and that therefore need to be installed. All of the fonts and packages used to prepare this document—as well as this document itself—are freely available from the Comprehensive TEX Archive Network (http://www.ctan.org/).

Writing in ‘methods’ or complete packages, he contrasted with writing in aphorisms, or single observations such as ‘Revenge is a kind of wild justice. The passive consumer wants packages, but those, he suggested, who are concerned in pursuing knowledge and in seeking causes will resort to aphorisms, just because they are incomplete and require participation in depth.” Marshall McLuhan Understanding Media FRAIM / SS 2 To Eric McLuhan Relentless provocateur over the years FRAIM / SS 3 Contents Preface 8 Introduction 10 I.

Iconic Architecture in Dubai as Signs and Symbols February 2013 ii Abstract This study seeks to investigate the impact of architectural icons on the cities that they are built in, especially those in Dubai to understand the perceptions and associations of ordinary people with these icons, thus analysing their impact on the quality of life in the city. This is an important study with the advent of ‘iconism’ in architecture that has a growing acceptance and demand, wherein the status of a piece of architecture is predetermined as an icon by the media and not necessarily by the people.

  • The Intercal Programming Language Revised Reference Manual
    THE INTERCAL PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE REVISED REFERENCE MANUAL Donald R. Woods and James M. Lyon C-INTERCAL revisions: Louis Howell and Eric S. Raymond Copyright (C) 1973 by Donald R. Woods and James M. Lyon Copyright (C) 1996 by Eric S. Raymond Redistribution encouragedunder GPL (This version distributed with C-INTERCAL 0.15) -1- 1. INTRODUCTION The names you are about to ignore are true. However, the story has been changed significantly.Any resemblance of the programming language portrayed here to other programming languages, living or dead, is purely coincidental. 1.1 Origin and Purpose The INTERCAL programming language was designed the morning of May 26, 1972 by Donald R. Woods and James M. Lyon, at Princeton University.Exactly when in the morning will become apparent in the course of this manual. Eighteen years later (give ortakeafew months) Eric S. Raymond perpetrated a UNIX-hosted INTERCAL compiler as a weekend hack. The C-INTERCAL implementation has since been maintained and extended by an international community of technomasochists, including Louis Howell, Steve Swales, Michael Ernst, and Brian Raiter. (There was evidently an Atari implementation sometime between these two; notes on it got appended to the INTERCAL-72 manual. The culprits have sensibly declined to identify themselves.) INTERCAL was inspired by one ambition: to have a compiler language which has nothing at all in common with anyother major language. By ’major’ was meant anything with which the authors were at all familiar,e.g., FORTRAN, BASIC, COBOL, ALGOL, SNOBOL, SPITBOL, FOCAL, SOLVE, TEACH, APL, LISP,and PL/I. For the most part, INTERCAL has remained true to this goal, sharing only the basic elements such as variables, arrays, and the ability to do I/O, and eschewing all conventional operations other than the assignment statement (FORTRAN "=").
