GRE? Somebody asked me about GRE, so I archive it here... salam, just started my phd.so far very bz with classes. GRE: to register for this exam you have to register from ETS, it handles TOEFL exam too, fee for GRE is around USD170 (last year), while TOEFL is around USD150. Last time I chose to take the exam at Prometric(nearby LRT Dang Wangi, so it's easy to catch the train since it begin 900AM, otherwise you can choose for evening). I did not really prepare for GRE and TOEFL since I had wedding weeks before.. so busy with something else. Nevertheless the M'sian govt decided not to send the rest of us overseas, so actually taking both pretty much a waste (sigh). But later I took IELTS, and score quite well, also pointless(I got an offer to Australia though). Anyway.. GRE has two sections, quantitative and qualitative, finally analytical writing.

Tex Source My Presentation Slides [HTML] My Slides [PDF, 70 slides since I did some overlays] You can refer my .tex file and do whatever changes that you want... but I'll be happy if you tell me where will you present your talk using my so called *masterpiece* :D By the way, I converted those Beamer PDFs using external command, that is gs I tweak some recommendations here So, what I did was; gs -dNOPAUSE -g1024x768 -r205 -sDEVICE=pngalpha -sOutputFile=./temp/slide_%02d.png -dBATCH beamer-foss-my-09.pdf cd temp/new/ //02d since this will correctly numbers your slides sequence from 00,01,10,11.. otherwise it will assume 1,11,10 is within the same order(as you can see, in the link that I gave before it doesn...

Latex #2 : ArabTeX Salam, Pengembaraan LateX berterusan dengan penggunaan pakej ArabTex - diinspirasikan penggunaannya oleh bro Bahathir Selepas bermain-main dengan baris arahan LateX sebenarnya kita boleh langkau penggunaan default arahan latex yang memerlukan pengubahan DVI ke PDF secara manual (latex && dvipdf ). Sebaliknya cukup dengan penggunaan pdflatex Baik, untuk penggunaan ArabTex, kita perlu buat seperti berikut: Andaikan nama fail ini "jawi.text" \documentclass{article} \usepackage{arabtex} \begin{document} \setmalay \novocalize Arab\TeX\ \end{document} Jika anda lihat snippet di atas, anda perasan penggunaan aksara "caret" .. ini untuk memberikan tanda "hamzah" pada huruf "alif", disebabkan kita mahu fonetik alif ini berbunyi "a" seperti di dalam "ayam" Untuk jAwI pula, A dan I capital digunakan untuk memaksa ArabTex meletakkan "alif" di tengah-tengah perkataan dan "ya" di akhir perkata...

LateX#1 Joey pointed me out on using LateX to solve cross referencing problem... I found this problem really irritating when I have to improve my literature survey.. Here goes my LateX journey.. I did install this software years back but I never use it since the size is HUGE and I do not have any purpose to use it. Penggunaan Latex amat popular di kalangan kawan-kawan yang giat menyiapkan tesis dan kertas persidangan mereka. Saya baru je nak guna latex ni so ada beberapa opsyen 1- Install Lyx, MikeTex dan sokongan kamus Aspell (ada BM, lama dulu MIMOS buat) 2- Install Latex guna cygwin Saya menghadapi masalah guna GUI Latex (Lyx) pada 1) pada mulanya ... so pergi kepada opsyen baris arahan pada Cygwin. Kadang-kadang installer yang datang dengan bulk pada Lyx memerlukan anda memasang pakej satu persatu $ latex.exe -v pdfeTeX 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4) kpathsea version 3.5.4 Copyright (C) 1997-2004 Peter Breitenlohner (eTeX)/Han The Thanh (pdfTeX).
