\section{Installation}
The first assignment is to install the required software on your computer.  First, install for windows MikTeX, for linux TeXlive\footnote{Most linux systems have this program preinstalled.} and for a mac MacTeX, this software can found at \url{https://intercon.science.uu.nl/software/Tex/}. Then install the program TeXstudio.


\section{New document}
Start a new document and create the title, set yourself as the author. 

	
\section{Text formatting}
\begin{enumerate}
	\item Recreate the text below.
	
		\emph{\tiny{Often, very tiny people have to look} \Huge{up,} \normalsize which will make their cheeks flush \textcolor{red}{red.} \tiny When \small you \normalsize are \large running \Large up \LARGE and \Large down \normalsize the stairs you will flush \textcolor{green}{green} and \textcolor{yellow}{yellow}, if beforehand you spend 90 \% of your \textsc{energy} on \emph{a speedrecordattempt} on the \textbf{SportCieracebike}.  A dutchman would say after such an effort ``H\'e, h\'e''.}

		\texttt{Still weird that people will voluntarily get exhausted.}\footnote{Attention: This footnote is part of the story.}

	\item Give the text shown above a header. Choose a nice command.
	\item Make a couple of other random headers.
	\item Make the table of contents. Which headers are shown there?
\end{enumerate}


\section{Lists}
Recite the following lists. Use a different way of numbering them every time, keep in mind the properties of the lists.
\begin{enumerate}
	\item All departments of the Faculty of Science
	\item The recipy of your favorite dish (show only the four main steps, otherwise you might take very long).
	\item A list of three random words and their definition.
\end{enumerate}


\section{Get started yourself}
At a certain moment in your life you have probably made a report or article in Word. Look one up that is on your computer and try to recreate it within \LaTeX. Take out the figures and pictures, we will discuss figures in the third week.
