\section{What do you like about it?}  What I like about LaTeX is that if science has an artistic aspect, it would be LaTeX for me. I consider it a canvass canvas  for my “art”, I suppose. It gives you a tool to present your data in whatever way you want. Imagination is the limit. I use it mostly for compilation of scientific papers. It’s so much easier to program in LaTeX if you have a lot of formulas and tables. It gives you a better way to represent your information, whereas Word is very limited in what it can do. I used to use LaTeX to write papers and hand in my homework, especially if it was math heavy, so I didn’t have to write it out and it would be more legible for my professors.  Surprising applications... You can run different applications through it, it's incredibly powerful. Like I said, \textbf{imagination is the limit, if you can think about it you can do it.} Which is really awesome.
