## Advanced LaTeX Training
This are the materials for training advanced topics in LaTeX. It was originally designed for the unofficial "Workshop on intermediate and advance topics in LaTeX", so it is expected that you have already head some experiences with LaTeX and thus you do not require elementary guidelines.
#### Topics covered:
* combining latex documents from pieces
* table of contents and other automatically generated lists
* counters
* multipanel figures
* flowcharts and schematics
* code highlights
* tables: importing and formatting
* macros
### Prerequisities
To start with this LaTeX training, you need following:
* LaTeX compiler (editting online on overleaf is also OK)
* PDF viewer
Furthermore, for some of the tasks you also need:
* installed latexdiff
### Guidelines
To start with the training,
* Open [day1latex.tex](./day1latex.tex "day1") and compile (with PdfLatex or some built-in command).
* All the further instructions for the modification of the file are in the compiled document. Follow them.
* Once you are finished, continue with [day2latex.tex](./day2latex.tex "day 2") and compile. Again, all the further instructions for the modification of the file are in the compiled document. Follow them.
The example of compiled PDFs are located in the folder [compiled](./compiled "folder with compiled pdfs") (Please note that the the compiled pdfs are updated only occasionally.)
### History
This workshop was originally designed for the unofficial "Workshop on intermediate and advance topics in LaTeX" for [InScAPE research group](https://atmos.meteo.uni-koeln.de/inscape "website of InScAPE research group") at the [Institut of Geophysics and Meteorology](https://geomet.uni-koeln.de/ "website of Institut of Geophysics and Meteorology"), Univeristy of Cologne.
