With ordinary strings in Julia, to enter a string literal with embedded LaTeX equations you need to manually escape all backslashes and dollar signs: for example, $\alpha^2$ is written \$\\alpha^2\$. Also, even though IJulia is capable of displaying formatted LaTeX equations (via MathJax), an ordinary string will not exploit this.

This is an intensive workshop for the Julia language, composed out of three 2-hour segments. It targets people already familiar with programming, so that the established basics such as for-loops are skipped through quickly and efficiently. Nevertheless, it assumes only rudimentary programming familiarity and does explain concepts that go beyond the basics. The goal of the workshop is to take you from zero to hero (regarding Julia): even if you know nothing about Julia, by the end you should...
