Dear CVR,
    I downloaded the sources of all chap01 to chap17,   tutor.tex and =
the tugindia.cls together with the other required stylefiles.
    My aim is to learn and prepare a presentation for LaTeX. But your =
tutor.tex, when compiled with PDFLaTeX, shows the error "Undefined =
control \theoremstyle". I am surprised to see this as it is passed to =
amsthm.sty via your file mystyles.thm. In my usual mathematics =
documents, I have been using this control successfully. To give a try, I =
remove the option [mystyles] from \usepackage[mystyles]{amsthm} from =
your tutor.tex. Then this spot was cleared while compilation but then it =
cameup with the new error

! LaTeX Error: The font size command \normalsize is not defined:
               there is probably something wrong with the class file.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...                                     =20
                                         =20
l.79 \begin{document}
                    =20
? x
No pages of output.

I really fail to understand what is happening. Could you please guide?

Thanks in advance

Q. How can you drop a raw egg onto a concrete floor without cracking it?

A. Concrete floors are very hard to crack!
