Summary description: Light weight template for creating school submissions using LaTeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I remember when I first started out with LaTeX, as a student, it was very
new and challenging just to make a simple nicely typeset document.
We've all seen documents that have a problem numbering sections, where
the title would be 2 Problem instead of Problem 2.
This is a package that makes it easy for students to hand in a formatted
document in LaTeX. It just creates a couple of commands that typeset the
document with nice headers (problem numbers and part problem numbers).
If you are a teacher, this package works just as well for creating
exercises!
