Why to choose Latex Over Word Processor?

LaTeX is software for typesetting documents. In other words, it's a document preparation system. LaTeX is not a word processor but is used as a document markup language.LaTeX is free, open-source software.

Donald E. Knuth developed TEX in the year 1977 as a typesetting system for preparing books, especially those containing a lot of mathematical expressions. Based on it, Leslie Lamport developed LaTeX (named as LATEX 2.09) in 1985 for preparing documents by concentrating on the structure of a document rather than on its formatting details.

Should you use latex?

Everything has two sides and the use of the thing decided which side is useful. basically, I am trying to convey that Latex can be useful in some conditions but in some conditions word processors can do much well. Remember one thing that Latex is used for documenting science-related things. and word processors are used for general purposes. 

But as I said earlier that Latex is free and open-source software but word processors are generally paid. If you want to use word-processors you can use LibreOffice for the same things they have all functionalities that a paid software has.

What is the use of latex?

Latex is very useful for documenting science-related things. you can simply type very complex mathematical formulas in signal tips. I give you a simple example.

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

and it will automatically converts it into a beautiful equation `x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}`.

You can make some complex mathematical notations which can be possible using latex only. here you can't use word processors.

you can also type some chemical formulas using latex.

\mathrm{NH_3} \stackrel{\mathrm{D_2}}{\rightleftharpoons} \mathrm{NH_2D} 
\stackrel{\mathrm{D_2}}{\rightleftharpoons} \mathrm{ND_3}

I can't render this equation on the blogger. So I used png image. but when you use a proper software it will be very handy and useful.
