A typesetting program often used by mathematicians to write documents and proofs. It has many libraries that contain pretty much all symbols used for math, including ways to write sums and limits. The coded text is converted into a pdf document for viewing. The name can be distinguished from the rubber latex by capitalization of the L, T and X in the word.
After proving the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, I typed up the proof using LaTeX so it would look nice.
