Jim Hefferon submitted the undergradmath package. Version number: 2017-01-10 License type: other-free Summary description: LaTeX Math for Undergraduates cheat sheet Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a cheat sheet for writing mathematics with LaTeX. It is aimed at US undergraduates. When I asked my students for feedback on LaTeX the consensus was that it is pretty easy but they need a list of symbols. This is my response. Besides including all the symbols they should need, there is some general advice about writing mathematics in LaTeX and a few examples taken from their classes. It prints on two sides of a US letter sheet. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/info/undergradmath More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/undergradmath We are supported by the TeX User Groups.

This pair of packages was motivated by a friend, who was preparing Bible studies lessons using a combination of the application e-Sword (http://www.e-sword.net/) and LaTeX.

Donald P. Story submitted an update to the conv-xkv package. Version number: 2017-01-09 License type: lppl1.2 Summary description: Create new key-value syntax Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This small package supports key-value syntax other than the standard latex syntax of <key>=<value>. Using this package, create key-values of the form <key>:<value> or <key>-><value>, for example. The package converts the new notation to xkeyval notation and passes it on to xkeyval. What's new: (2017/01/03) The delimiters for the optional first argument of cxkvsetkeys is changed from the standard `[]' to `()'. Also, if no key-value of the special type (such as <key>:<value> or <key>-><value>) is detected, the whole argument is passed to setkeys. This means that either the new key-value pairing or the standard pairing may be used; cxkvsetkeys{lname:Story} or cxkvsetkey{lname=Story} both work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/conv-xkv More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/conv-xkv ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: xint
by CTAN Announcements 08 Jan '17

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the xint package. Version number: 1.2k 2017-01-06 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - The xintfrac.sty floating point macros since 1.2f round their arguments to the target precision P before further processing. This rounding is now exact (aka correct) in all cases, even with fractions having long numerators and denominators. This change has little influence on float expressions, as the xintfloatexpr parser handles there the / symbol as an operator hence it does not (except for special constructs) get to see fractions as such. - Half-INT powers A^x (only available in float expressions, not via macros) proceed by an INT power and then a square-root extraction: the 1.2f implementation did the latter on an already rounded value, 1.2k keeps some of the guard digits to make the computed value Z closer to the exact one: a difference of less than 0.52 ulp(Z) is guaranteed in all cases. - Macro xintnewdummy is made a public one, it serves to declare additional letters as dummy variables in expressions. This is for Unicode engines, mainly, as all Latin letters are already predefined to act as such. See CHANGES.pdf or CHANGES.html for the details and more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xint ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
