Hi there, any recommendation on how to write to text file from latex? Typically, "if this counter value equals 3, append 'blahblah' to that file". When I search online I only find how to include text.
@anderstood unless you escape to the shell you can only write to files opened by tex, you can not append to existing files, although once opened you can make multiple \write appending new lines until the file is closed via \closeout
I, for one, welcome the advent of #280characters. For too long, I have been neglected, omitted, and discarded. There will no longer be any reason, justification, or excuse for not using an Oxford comma. You can even put two spaces after the full stop (but that looks a bit silly).
@PauloCereda latex2e has been in rcs,cvs,svn (twice) and git so the switch to git isn't that disruptive it's just one more change:-) RCS with a distributed mail server and an emacs mail client was the most fun:-)
align gets executed twice and you need to make \pause keep out of the way of the first run:
\documentclass[usenames, dvipsnames]{beamer}
\usepackage{amsmath, amssymb, amsthm, mathtools, commath, array, tcolorbox, cancel, caption, subcaption, graphicx, multicol,beamerthemesplit,stmaryrd,comment, ...
The American Chemical Society (for whom achemso is written) provide only basic support for LaTeX submissions, and certainly do not use the LaTeX sources for final typesetting. I would therefore strongly recommend doing any cross-referencing between the main paper and Supporting Information 'by ha...
@ChristianHupfer The Elephant-in-suitcase question was deleted :( Now I will never hear what happens to the elephant when it hits the suitcase close to the speed of light :( [the really mean thing is the questions was deleted as soon as I posted an answer - this is now the 3rd time this happened to me with this specific user :( ]
@PauloCereda The real problem was media.gettyimages.com/photos/… The questions asked was basically how to make the elephant even bigger.... no change to fit it in the suitcase.
@PauloCereda Do you have some entertaining duck fact to improve my mood?
@samcarter Because a duck's eyes are located on either sides of its head, they have a field of vision of nearly 340 degrees. And thanks to the shape of their eyes, they can see objects both near and far simultaneously. To top it off, ducks have three eyelids and can see in color.
However, that fact does not explain why I wear glasses. :)
@PauloCereda @samcarter: Most likely in topology an elephant and a duck are isomorphic ;-)
@samcarter Now seriously: I saw that the question was deleted, but how can it be deleted while having an answer (or did you delete your answer even before?)
@ChristianHupfer Only questions with upvotes answers are save from deletion by the OP. And The OP deletes his questions so fast after answering that the likelihood of an upvote is very small.
@ChristianHupfer google never disappoints in such things :)
@samcarter It was pretty unclear and I had in mind what you wrote in a comment later one about the size of the 'box' and the elephant squeezing, but I did not wrote more on that
@samcarter flag the question and tell the mods what is happening. While the technical implementation of the rule is you can delete your own question if it does not have an upvoted answer, the spirit of the rule is you cannot delete questions with good answers.
@ChristianHupfer Ah Christian Hello. But are you alive or dead? :) pretty much I do not have any news for you. Do not worry ahahah that positive votes I always put them.
@Sebastiano Yes, I am alive feeling like a walking dead, but very busy. Moving in to my own house finally this weekend; we're still packing boxes etc. Thanks for the votes, of course
@ChristianHupfer Christian too I'm too busy with the school. And I'm also making a dad's memory for a university teacher. I'm dealing with modern physics for calculating variations (functional and lemma). I'm in tilt.
@ChristianHupfer I want to find a very nice girlfriend :))) compatible with my sign of Sagittarius to help me. ahahahahahah
@ChristianHupfer YoushouldwriteGermaninexpl3mode then you could add spaces so humans could understand while still being grammatically correct as spaces are ignored
@CarLaTeX everyone knows that the only possible meals are spaghetti and pizza, and pineapple obviously doesn't go with spaghetti, thus proving that you must eat them on pizza
So I'm citing a resource entitled "std::priority_queue::pop". I put that in {} and escaped _ and : . What I am getting is a bunch of errors and "std priority q ueue pop". How do I fix this? (BibLaTeX)
@kim366 it's impossible to debug code you can't see (and code doesn't work well in chat) make a small test file and ask a question in the question and answer part of the site
