Table and Schemes in LaTeX

lo2

Hi I am in a rather hurry so a quick reply would be most appreciated.

I have to make a table in which I put all the result that I have calculated, I just do not know how to make a such thing in LaTeX. I would like a table as in Word I just do not know how to make it in LaTeX!

Look here: The not so short introduction to [tex]\LaTeX2e[/tex].

I have tried that loads of times and it has never helped me so I would most appreciate if one of you would help me!

What, precisely, are you unable to understand? The index of that guide tells you that everything you need to know about tables are on pages 42-44. Use a tabular environment, specify the alignment you want, use & to break up column entries, double backslash for new line and so on.

Honestly, everything you need is there. If you can't understand that guide, nobody here will be of much help to you.

I have now tried for so long and I am still unable to make it work.

But please try to write a nice and big table which I can just paste into my tex document that might help.

Page 42 in 'the not so short introduction' is what you need. It is not at all difficult to make simple tables, try some of the examples there. If you cannot do that, start at page one and read on to page 7 and try to compile the minimal examples.

You might also want to try http://www.tug.org/tex-archive/help/.../xl2latex.html
there is an open office version somewhere around as well.

An example:

Nice! A really nice scheme but how to add some more horizontal lines which can seperate the diffrent things better.

And how come it is in Danish?

Triss

I just copy/pasted from an old report, thats why it is in danish.

To add more horizontal lines add "\midrule" between the lines in the table (if you complile the example i gave you, it should not be so difficult to see).

kcirick

What program are you using to write your report in Latex? Most Latex editors come with a button that generates table for you.

If you are on Windows, check Texniccenter. If you are on *nix, check either Kile (If you're on KDE) and Texmaker (what I use).

And to make a horizontal line, you can also use "\hline"

Well I am using TeXnic center in windows 2000 and there is a table button but that does not help me alot. I try to make a table and then every time I just get loads of erorrs, so there must be anything that I have not understood. But what troubles me a bit is that you guys think that making table is piece of cake, whereas I simply do not get it, am I a total n00b or what?

Triss

to make small tables is easy -- larger, more complicated ones can be tricky to type out (i always only used emacs+auctex to write tex so i do not know how to do it in texnic center), and that is where the plugin to excel ot calc comes in. with them you can convert an table made in on of those programs to latex code that you just paste into your source file.
It is also not difficult to see examples, there is surely some in the link in shoehorn's post, and a quick google search findes many more. For examples se

Thank you for that?

But where can I get that excel converter?

Triss

The link to it is in post #6 above. It workes for higher versions of excel too. I get a runtime error in excel 2002, but it still works.

lo2

Does anyone know of a toturial on how to make schemes in LaTeX.

Triss

Do take a look at paragraph 2.11.6 in http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info...ish/lshort.pdf

Besides that, i made a tex document with a bunch of tables and tabulars. they are not all pretty, and some text is in danish. But if you compile it, and watch the output together with the input then you can properly use it to figure out how to make your own.

Code:

\documentclass[article,oldfontcommands]{memoir}
\usepackage{amsmath} %needed for \boldsymbol etc.
\usepackage{array} %needed for m{1.5cm} etc.
\usepackage[collision]{chemsym} %needed for $\C_6\H_5\Br$ etc.

\newcommand{\ket}[1]{\, |#1\rangle}
\newcommand{\bra}[1]{\langle #1 |\,}

Thank you so much! You are awesome!

Hi,

Does any one know how to insert a scheme in latex? I am using the same commands as figures, but it doesn't work!!

do i need a special package for that?

I would be most grateful for your help :)

lo2	Table and Schemes in LaTeX Tweet Hi I am in a rather hurry so a quick reply would be most appreciated. I have to make a table in which I put all the result that I have calculated, I just do not know how to make a such thing in LaTeX. I would like a table as in Word I just do not know how to make it in LaTeX!

shoehorn	Look here: The not so short introduction to [tex]\LaTeX2e[/tex].

Triss	I just copy/pasted from an old report, thats why it is in danish. To add more horizontal lines add "\midrule" between the lines in the table (if you complile the example i gave you, it should not be so difficult to see).

kcirick	What program are you using to write your report in Latex? Most Latex editors come with a button that generates table for you. If you are on Windows, check Texniccenter. If you are on *nix, check either Kile (If you're on KDE) and Texmaker (what I use). And to make a horizontal line, you can also use "\hline"
