Exercises

1. Install LaTeX on your system:
   1. Debian based systems: install Tex Live distribution with the command

      sudo apt-get install texlive texlive-latex-extra texlive-font-utils
      

   2. MacOS with HomeBrew: install MacTeX distribution. It seems that you first need to install homebrew cask and then

      brew cask install mactex
      

      or
