Game experience summary

2018 year 2 month 13 morning 9 spot , Meisai modeling competition is closed ！ Next , Share my feelings and experience ：

2018 The mathematical modeling of Massey in is 2 month 9 Started on , Then when we start to put questions on his official website , Just download it , Three people discussed the topic together , Massey, a total of 6 Questions ,MCM yes A、B、C Three questions ,ICM yes D、E、F Three questions .

Here's a little bit about MCM/ICM

• MCM:The Mathematical Contest in Modeling , The translation is mathematical modeling contest , This type of problems are all mathematical problems
• ICM： The Interdisciplinary Contest in Modeling, Commonly known as interdisciplinary competition , And MCM The difference is , The title will give you some reference data , It is convenient for you to find the direction of checking data as soon as possible .

My game process

Let's start with the questions , It took about two hours to decide what to do , So I began to build the model , Because my teammate is a big guy , So we will choose the topic on the first day （ We chose A topic ） Half done . By the afternoon of the next day, the calculation results of our four problems came out The rest of the class spent a day writing papers and revising , Make the final proofreading on the third night , About 10:00 p.m., our paper was handed in , There were basically no problems in solving problems during the whole competition （ Because the establishment of models is basically done by the big guys , I am in charge of typesetting ） however , The workload of typesetting is a little larger , No matter the font setting , Or the editing and position of image formula , All need to be considered , I worked hard for about three days and finally achieved the effect I wanted .

My arduous course of typesetting

Because I have experienced the use of National Games WORD Typesetting the paper , So I feel deeply ,WORD The edited formula and some Greek letters are really not good-looking , The format of the row is not easy to control , So we decided to use Latex In typesetting . therefore , From day one , Teammates build models there , I started to build Latex Environment . In fact, before the start of the US race , I installed one Latex The editing software （CTex suit ） I wanted to use it directly , As a result, it was found that , That summary page is not easy to edit , Write that format completely by yourself , It's a waste of time , So Baidu began to check all kinds of data , Find template , Later, I found that a macro package can be used , It's him ！！！（mcmthesis.zip）, So I found the website and downloaded it , I began to try to add this macro package to my software , It turned out to be a mistake , Quite dog blood …… I worked all afternoon on the first day, but the software didn't work out , Teammates all say , Or else WORD Well , But I still want to do it again （ I can't stand it WORD Row modeling paper ！！！） So we went on to find out the reasons for the errors , Then I found someone on the Internet saying , This CTex Your suit is not easy to use , There are other latest Tex The distribution already includes that macro package in advance , therefore , Uninstall the original software immediately , It's finally done this time （ It's already one o'clock in the evening ！！！） Excited to fly , Then from the next day , Officially enter the typesetting mode ~

Tex live2017 Installation tutorial ！！！

I use it Tex live2017, This should be the latest version at present , It already includes mcmthesis This macro package , So installing this version also saves me the process of adding macro packages ,Latex This typesetting software is very good everywhere , It is the step of adding macro packages manually , too troublesome , Too complicated , It's also very error prone , I suffered a lot on the first day of modeling ！！！

The download address of this software is Tsinghua University open source mirror website

Here I download the fourth , After downloading, you can install it directly

After downloading, open these files

Among them, everyone chooses that install-tl-advanced.bat Double click the file to install

setup script

The installation process is a little long , Just wait a moment, everyone

After installation , You can directly unzip the one you downloaded before mcmthesis.zip The compressed package , Open the folder mcmthesis-demo.tex This file , After you open it, compile it to be the template ！！！

It took me a whole day to step on all kinds of pits before I succeeded , I hope someone will step on these pits less after I write them ！！

Download address of macro package ：

Massey modeling template macro package mcmthesis

Concrete Latex I won't say more about some commands of the code here , You can find it on Baidu .

in addition , This macro package is used in the template ,lipsum, The commands in the template are like this ：

usepackage{lipsum}

Let me explain the function of this macro package , His macro package is a random number of fake essays , It contains an article , This article is purely for testing the typesetting effect . When you are writing your thesis , Put the code inside lipsum{} Just comment out such commands . I suggest not to delete usepackage{lipsum} This code , My teammate said that it would be garbled after deletion , So I didn't try , Anyway, it's OK to use it normally , Finally, the paper is handed in PDF, Nor is it a code page , Just write your own code .
