LaTeX Description
LaTeX is a system for typesetting high-quality documents. It is also pronounced Lahtech>>>. It is used most often for medium-to large technical or scientific documents, but it can also be used for any type of publishing. LaTeX does not have a word processor! LaTeX encourages authors to not worry about the appearance of their documents and to focus on the content. This would be possible in most word-processing or typesetting systems. The author would need to choose the layout they want, such as 18pt Times Roman for title, 12pt Times Italic name, etc. This leads to two things: authors wasting time on designs and lots of poorly designed documents. LaTeX is based upon the belief that it is better for document designers to design documents and authors to get on with writing documents.
LaTeX Alternatives
Bash
Bash is a Unix shell and command-language that can be downloaded for free. It is the default login shell for most Linux distributions. Bash is available on Linux systems as well as Windows via the Windows Subsystem to Linux. Bash is the default user Shell in Solaris 11. It was also the default shell for Apple macOS from 10.3 to macOS Catalina. This changed the default shell to ZSH. Bash is still available on macOS systems as an alternative shell, despite this change.
Bash is a command processor that allows users to enter commands into a text window and have them executed by the system. Bash can also read from and execute commands from a file. This is called a shell script. It supports many features that are common in Unix shells such as wildcard matching, piping and here documents, command substitution and variables, and control structures to condition testing and iteration. Bash conforms to the POSIX shell specifications.

Cedar
Cedar is a policy language and evaluation tool developed by AWS for fine-grained application access control. It allows developers to define concise and clear authorization policies by decoupling application logic from access control. Cedar supports common authorizations models, such as role-based and attribute-based control. This allows for a more expressive and analyzable definition of policy. Its design is based on readability and performance. This ensures that policies are easy to understand and enforce. Cedar allows applications to make precise authorization decisions. This enhances security and maintainability. The policy structure has been designed to be indexable for quick retrieval, and to support real-time evaluation with a limited latency. It allows you to use analyzer tools that can optimize your policies and prove that your security model is as you believe it to be.

BASIC
BASIC (Beginners' All Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) is a group of high-level, general-purpose programming languages that are designed to be easy to use. BASIC was initially designed to support simple mathematical operations. Matrix arithmetic was supported from its first implementation as a batch-language, and character strings were added in 1965. BASIC was born out of a larger movement towards time-sharing. Some dialects of BASIC support matrices and matrix-based operations that can be used to solve a set of simultaneous linear algebraic problems. These dialects directly supported matrix operations like assignment, addition, multiplicand (of compatible matrix types) and evaluation of a determinate. In the 1990s, BASIC's popularity declined as more powerful computers were introduced and advanced programming languages (such as Pascal or C) were made available.

MATLAB
MATLAB®, a combination of a desktop environment for iterative analysis, design processes, and a programming language that expresses matrix or array mathematics directly, is MATLAB®. It also includes the Live Editor, which allows you to create scripts that combine output, code, and formatted text in an executable notebook. MATLAB toolboxes have been professionally developed, tested and documented. MATLAB apps allow you to see how different algorithms interact with your data. You can repeat the process until you get the results you desire. Then, MATLAB will automatically generate a program to replicate or automate your work. With minor code changes, you can scale your analyses to run on GPUs, clusters, and clouds. You don't need to rewrite any code or learn big-data programming and other out-of-memory methods. Convert MATLAB algorithms automatically to C/C++ and HDL to run on your embedded processor/FPGA/ASIC. Simulink works with MATLAB to support Model-Based Design.
