Introduction

While the previous chapter was about mathematics, we now deal with other sciences, such as chemistry, physics, computer science, and technology such as electronics.

Most sciences heavily use mathematics, which we already covered in Chapter 10, Advanced Mathematics. So, this chapter will be kind of an overview, showing with specific recipes how LaTeX can be used in various fields.
