Is there any good books/documents that describe LaTeX usage in Computer Science?

Question

Till now I know that using LaTeX CS students can draw UML diagram easily with gorgeous look. I personally use LaTeX to make UML for my Software Design Pattern Lab.

LaTeX also supports for following things-

1.topological sort(example)
2.any graph
3.DFA & NFA(example)
4.source code listings(example, example, example, example)

Now, I need a book/document that describe all topics for those a CS student can use LaTeX.

"writing good looking essays" is a valid topic for CS and any other discipline. And, to me, it's good enough to justify using LaTeX. — Ignasi, Oct 04 '17 at 15:02
@Ignasi add it in the question with example if you sure that this match with the topic I asked. — alhelal, Oct 04 '17 at 17:40
I mean that this is the main topic for using LaTeX, all your proposed benefits are a plus. — Ignasi, Oct 04 '17 at 17:55
@Ignasi -- the question is not whether or why cs students should use latex, but whether there are any books on how to use latex directed particularly at the cs community. — barbara beeton, Oct 04 '17 at 20:44
Every community has its own needs and remedies... You might find Latex for Logicians, this post, that document and this page of interest if you're looking for resources for logic and category theory. But I doubt you'll ever find a textbook about how Latex can deal with those topics. — Clément, Oct 07 '17 at 01:54
