\section{Mathematics}
%
We interest ourselves in the variables
%
\begin{IEEEeqnarray}{rl}
    X\;&\sim\normal(100, 0.5) \nonumber \\
    Y\;&\sim\Cauchy(0, 2.5). \nonumber
\end{IEEEeqnarray}
%
Note how much prettier these look\footnote{They look good to me}

We have also defined some handy mathematics operators. For example, perhaps the following is true
%
\begin{equation}
    \E{X} = \E[x\sim \mathbb{P}_n]{x}?\label{eq:my-eq}
\end{equation}
%
Now let's get serious with our first proposition.
%
\begin{prop}
    Equation~\ref{eq:my-eq} is almost always correct under some assumptions.
\end{prop}

If we would rather not prove this, then we can talk instead about \elpdPlain, or even \elpdHatPlain if we're feeling fancy. Other mathematics functions can be found in \texttt{distoperators.sty}.
