How to build tables:
\begin{tabular}{| c | c | c |} \hline
a & b & c \\ \hline
\end{tabular}
produces a b c
\begin{tabular}{| c || c } \hline
a & b \\
\end{tabular}
produces a b
\begin{tabular}{| c | c | c |} \hline
a & b & c \\ \hline
d & f & g \\ \hline
\end{tabular}
produces
a b c
d f g
\begin{tabular}{| c | c | c |} \hline
\multicolumn{3}{| c |}{A} \\ \hline
a & b & c \\ \hline
\end{tabular}
produces
A
a b c
Numbering Functions:
\begin{equation}
\label{trivialeq}
f(x) = f(x)
\end{equation}
Here we can talk about equation \ref{trivialeq}. We know $x = x$, because of \eqref{trivialeq}.
This code produces
fpxq fpxq (1)
Here we can talk about equation 1. We know x x, because of (1).

Theorem and Proof Environments:
\begin{theorem}
\label{Theorem}
This is where the Theorem goes.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
We prove Theorem \ref{Theorem} here.
\end{proof}
\begin{theorem}
\label{othertheorem}
This is a second Theorem.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
We prove Theorem \ref{othertheorem} here by referencing Theorem \ref{Theorem}.
\end{proof}
The previous code produces the following results.
Theorem 1. This is where the Theorem goes.
Proof. We prove Theorem 1 here.
Theorem 2. This is a second Theorem.
Proof. We prove Theorem 2 here by referencing Theorem 1.
