It's quite natural that Peter Jackson made three movies from a rather voluminous book like 'Lord of the Rings' but to squeeze out three almost even longer movies from a rather short book is a miracle ;-)
@ChristianHupfer Well you could make 6 or more films from LoTR; Three for the Hobbit are quite a bit too much I think. Nevertheless I'm reading it for the first time in English and for the first time in its first edition!

I want to write a code to make a table contains Pythagorean Triples (see picture) automatically. That is mean from the formulas $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$ , we can get the Pythagorean Triples
I used Mathematica, convert to TeX, I get
the code of Mathematica is
\left(
\begin{array}{ccc}
3 & 4 & 5 \\...
I use the matlab2tikz package to creat surface in LaTex editor, but it display ugly unlike the Fig. created in the Matlab. Can anyone help me out? Is there a way of adjusting the x,y and z axis ranges with different ratios? Thanks in advance!
Here is my MWE:

@DavidCarlisle -- i don't believe you. take a look at this one: tex.stackexchange.com/a/50408 -- that's from my own little checklist. you'll have to figure out why your search didn't find it. (leaving now; chariot awaits. but i will log on later to follow up.)
@barbarabeeton standard reason, I haven't found a way to search for tabs via sql (it should be char(9) but it seems to be normalised away) the elisp script would fix it but only if it gets applied
@Moriambar I tried to replace ' ' in the first replace to TAB or some such by using char(9) then liik for \TAB instead of \XXX but nothing I tried worked
@Moriambar sorry too late:-) (I could revert the edit)
@Moriambar yes single backslash tab can occur instead of single backslash four spaces as tab (used to be) an alternative for four spaces to give the code indent (and the usual sx elisp found them all so there are no hidden charcters)
@Moriambar not that it matters but of course my rollback does not affect the query (until sunday)
Since last update of graphics-def (2017-06-12) I have error messages when using auto-pst-pdf and pstricks. These error messages involve the \stockwidth and stockheight lengths, which are defined by the memoir class, if I'm not mistaken, which I do not use. Typing s in the console nevertheless res...
@DavidCarlisle @barbarabeeton I think I'd better go to bed now, since I will be up in a few hours. Anyway I added the tab query, which adds some more posts. I will do another query (just not to disturb the work) asap, and will find how to pop up those nasty posts. I feel too tired to do a good job
@DavidCarlisle you have to assume it is. Around 1100 worst case. But I don't think it's that way at all
@JosephWright auto-pst-pdf loads two drivers: pdftex.def and dvips.def, and so the \ifx\stockwidth\@undefined from the second fails due to the \@ifundefined{stockwidth} from the first.
@UlrikeFischer @JosephWright yes just came back here to say the same, as Joseph says that hasn't really changed I thought. Should be easy enough to fix, eg use \@ifundefined in all the drivers
Sorry @DavidCarlisle @barbarabeeton I did not do my best on the previous query. Neverhteless neither this one nor the one before effectively checked the tab, I think, but the latter pops up the dreaded answer
I have to go to bed now, sorry again guys
ps: the new query is a surplus w.r.t. the previous "per year" one, ie both have to be unqueued
@Moriambar thanks I'm sure that's what I tried before but I must have messed up as I got no results every time, If I amend yours just to look for \ tab I get 1498 hits which is rather depressing data.stackexchange.com/tex/query/edit/684287
@barbarabeeton ^
@Moriambar but it includes this one which has \ space but no \ tab and I think no bug, so it seems the tex.sx is normalising char(9) to a space before running the query
@PauloCereda @DavidCarlisle I think we have a new culinary winner to annoy the Italians: @CarLaTeX @Moriambar @egreg Pasta: Queen Nigella Lawson mixes Marmite with butter and parm for a super savory spaghetti dinner. Want something a little richer? Use it to boost your carbonara.
@Moriambar Marmite is one of those things that if it's not imprinted on you during very early childhood you will likely hate it. And since only British people have such early imprinting, only they like it. Although there are similarly horrific (to others) versions in Australia and New Zealand.
@AlanMunn you mean salmiakki (on mobile I can't see what you reply to) well at my office most do. We had to go through a detoxing period though aince we feared for our heath
@AlanMunn someone brought some marmite chocolates to work the other day, it was a kind of Russian roulette, they all looked the same but half had some innocuous fake truffle filling, and half had marmite in, and you had to take your chances... (I passed on the offer:-)
