\section{Introduction}

This is a brief example of what this collection of scripts does. The metadata above is used to generate the title page of the report.

\begin{figure}[H]
\centering
\includegraphics{graph.png}
\caption{Images with captions are defined like so.}
\label{fig:labels-are-required}
\end{figure}

\begin{table}[H]
\caption{This is an example table.}
\centering
\begin{tabular}{|l|ccr|}
\hline
a & b & c & d\\
\hline
1 & 2 & 3 & 4\\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\label{table:labels-are-required-too}
\end{table}

Figure and table labels are required and must appear in [square brackets] below the object they are labeling.

\begin{equation}
E = m c^2
\label{eq:optional}
\end{equation}

Equations have to be entered in standard LaTeX format. As do \emph{italicized} and \textbf{bolded} passages. I'll work on that in the future.

Careful of typos! The makefile will hang if it encounters a LaTeX error while converting to PDF.
