Install Latex .sty and .cls files

Here is how to install a $\LaTeX$ physics.sty in Texlive under Ubuntu. You can do this to any other .sty package you like.


  1. Downloaded the physics.sty files from the CTAN repo
  2. As super user, create a directory in your $\LaTeX$ installation, mine is /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex
    • sudo mkdir /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/physics
  3. Move the downloaded file to the new location
    •  sudo mv physics.sty /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/physics
  4. Run  mktexlsr for changes to take effect
    • sudo mktexlsr 
  5.  Now start using it by adding the following to your  $\LaTeX$ file
    • \usepackage{physics}
  6. See the documentation on the package's web site for macro definitions
  7. Happy  $\LaTeX$-ing

Latex in Blogger

How do you insert equations like the following in Blogger?
\[ \vec{A}(\vec{r})=\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\oint_S\frac{\vec{J}(\vec{r'})\times\hat R}{R^2} d\tau'\]

First, you should know $\LaTeX$ typesetting. Second, you need to copy this script into your HTML template file.  


<script type="text/x-mathjax-config">
  MathJax.Hub.Config({tex2jax: {inlineMath: [['$','$'], ['\\(','\\)']],
                       displayMath: [['\\[','\\]'], ['$$','$$']]}});
  blogger.ui().viewType_.prototype.onRenderComplete=function(){MathJax.Hub.Queue(['Typeset',MathJax.Hub])};
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
  src="http://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS-MML_HTMLorMML">
</script>





Here is how you do it. 


1. Go to your posts settings and choose Template from the left-hand bar




2. Click on the "Edit HML" button to edit your template


3. Click on the "Proceed button"




4. Scroll to the point right before the "<\head>" tag and paste the above script, then save your changes.




That's it! Now happy $\LaTeX$-ing.
