C and C++ compilers provide a set of predefined macros which can be used to detect a wide variety of build settings and target properties at compile time. Combining them with the preprocessor allows for platform-specific code to be guarded at compile time.
I use $\LaTeX$ on a daily basis to write reports, course notes and nearly any other document that needs to be properly formatted. While I write in English most of the time, I sometimes need to produce a document in French or German. In this post, we will see why the placement of title macros advocated by most $\LaTeX$ tutorials and tools can lead to incorrect typesetting in non-English documents.

Welcome to my blog! I hope to start posting on this blog about my research, compiler- and hardware-related stuff, as well as other topics in computer science and maths.
