Using \verb to typeset the text of LaTeX commands
Sometimes you might want to typeset the name of a LaTeX command; for example \begin{verbatim}. You can use the \verb command to do this:
\verb|\begin{verbatim}|
\verb|...| tells LaTeX to treat everything between the pipe characters (|) as verbatim. It's useful whenever you want to display LaTeX commands in the pdf. Here is an example:
\documentclass{article}
\title{A random walk in \LaTeX}
\author{Overleaf Team}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section{In the beginning...}
Here is an example using the \texttt{verbatim} environment. You enclose the text within \verb|\begin{verbatim}|...\verb|\end{verbatim}|:
\begin{verbatim}
Use \LaTeX to typeset the LaTeX logo.
\end{verbatim}
\end{document}
This example produces the following output:
