Comment on LPT Do it.
captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 months agoThe issue I had was if it was big enough to need maintainability it was a group project and that meant Google docs or it was math and that meant scrawled on paper. Or technical writing which is the prof that told us to try latex in the first place but I was too busy that semester to learn it

You can do maths in LaTeX and I have used Overleaf for group projects before.

Fair, but this was 10 years ago, we were engineers, and it was hard enough explaining the work I did and the work I needed other people to do to them in a way these people understood.
Also I can’t do math on computers. Like arithmetic sure, but real math, that requires actually writing it down. Idk that’s probably my old lady trait these days

Presumably you do the work on paper and then type it up. I doubt professors would accept paper work nowadays.
