1. Default theme
To use the default theme \usetheme {default}
command should be added to the preamble. However, if no theme is specified then beamer will apply the default theme to all the frames.
Default frame is preferred when the user wants to customize the frames according to his/her purpose. It is easy to make local changes (color and font) in local structure in the default theme. Compiling the above code with default
theme, we get the following:
2. AnnArbor theme
3. Antibes theme
4. Bergen theme
5. Berkeley theme
6. Berlin theme
