@samcarter My professor used one of your TeX.SE answers in the notes :) How nice it is to see some TeX.SE links next to some figures, and following one of them leads to an answer by samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz ![24454818-DCB9-4DE4-BACA-2F07EBB9A5B2.jpeg](/image?hash=05fa6c27ceafadd19ab77300b2143528a91c272c9ef227e64d419da58e013651)
