LaTeX Tips

Using Verbatim in Beamer

To use \verb, \verbatim, or \Verbatim in Beamer, we need to pass [fragile] option to the frame.

1\begin{frame}[fragile]
2    \frametitle{a fragile frame}
3    \begin{verbatim}
4some verbatim text here
5    \end{verbatim}
6\end{frame}

Also be mindful of the whitespace at the beginning of your vebatim portion. Although LaTeX usually takes care of whitespaces properly, since it’s a verbatim portion, LaTeX will render exactly as you put it.
