# Algo

A Typst library for writing algorithms. On Typst v0.6.0+ you can import the `algo` package:

```typst
#import "@preview/algo:0.3.3": algo, i, d, comment, code
```

Otherwise, add the `algo.typ` file to your project and import it as normal:

```typst
#import "algo.typ": algo, i, d, comment, code
```

Use the `algo` function for writing pseudocode and the `code` function for writing code blocks with line numbers. Check out the [examples](#examples) below for a quick overview. See the [usage](#usage) section to read about all the options each function has.

## Examples

Here's a basic use of `algo`:

```typst
#algo(
title: "Fib",
parameters: ("n",)
)[
if $n < 0$:#i\ // use #i to indent the following lines
return null#d\ // use #d to dedent the following lines
if $n = 0$ or $n = 1$:#i #comment[you can also]\
return $n$#d #comment[add comments!]\
return #smallcaps("Fib")$(n-1) +$ #smallcaps("Fib")$(n-2)$
]
```


Here's a use of `algo` without a title, parameters, line numbers, or syntax highlighting:

```typst
#algo(
line-numbers: false,
strong-keywords: false
)[
if $n < 0$:#i\
return null#d\
if $n = 0$ or $n = 1$:#i\
return $n$#d\
\
let $x <- 0$\
let $y <- 1$\
for $i <- 2$ to $n-1$:#i #comment[so dynamic!]\
let $z <- x+y$\
$x <- y$\
$y <- z$#d\
\
return $x+y$
]
```


And here's `algo` with more styling options:

```typst
#algo(
title: [ // note that title and parameters
#set text(size: 15pt) // can be content
#emph(smallcaps("Fib"))
],
parameters: ([#math.italic("n")],),
comment-prefix: [#sym.triangle.stroked.r ],
comment-styles: (fill: rgb(100%, 0%, 0%)),
indent-size: 15pt,
indent-guides: 1pt + gray,
row-gutter: 5pt,
column-gutter: 5pt,
inset: 5pt,
stroke: 2pt + black,
fill: none,
)[
if $n < 0$:#i\
return null#d\
if $n = 0$ or $n = 1$:#i\
return $n$#d\
\
let $x <- 0$\
let $y <- 1$\
for $i <- 2$ to $n-1$:#i #comment[so dynamic!]\
let $z <- x+y$\
$x <- y$\
$y <- z$#d\
\
return $x+y$
]
```

 

Here's a basic use of `code`:

````typst
#code()[
```py
def fib(n):
if n < 0:
return None
if n == 0 or n == 1: # this comment is
return n # normal raw text
return fib(n-1) + fib(n-2)
```
]
````


And here's `code` with some styling options:

````typst
#code(
indent-guides: 1pt + gray,
row-gutter: 5pt,
column-gutter: 5pt,
inset: 5pt,
stroke: 2pt + black,
fill: none,
)[
```py
def fib(n):
if n < 0:
return None
if n == 0 or n == 1: # this comment is
return n # normal raw text
return fib(n-1) + fib(n-2)
```
]
````

## Usage

### `algo`

Makes a pseudocode element.

```typst
algo(
body,
header: none,
title: none,
parameters: (),
line-numbers: true,
strong-keywords: true,
keywords: _algo-default-keywords, // see below
comment-prefix: "// ",
indent-size: 20pt,
indent-guides: none,
indent-guides-offset: 0pt,
row-gutter: 10pt,
column-gutter: 10pt,
inset: 10pt,
fill: rgb(98%, 98%, 98%),
stroke: 1pt + rgb(50%, 50%, 50%),
radius: 0pt,
breakable: false,
block-align: center,
main-text-styles: (:),
comment-styles: (fill: rgb(45%, 45%, 45%)),
line-number-styles: (:)
)
```

**Parameters:**

* `body`: `content` — Main algorithm content.

* `header`: `content` — Algorithm header. If specified, `title` and `parameters` are ignored.

* `title`: `string` or `content` — Algorithm title. Ignored if `header` is specified.

* `Parameters`: `array` — List of algorithm parameters. Elements can be `string` or `content` values. `string` values will automatically be displayed in math mode. Ignored if `header` is specified.

* `line-numbers`: `boolean` — Whether to display line numbers.

* `strong-keywords`: `boolean` — Whether to strongly emphasize keywords.

* `keywords`: `array` — List of terms to receive strong emphasis. Elements must be `string` values. Ignored if `strong-keywords` is `false`.

The default list of keywords is stored in `_algo-default-keywords`. This list contains the following terms:

```
("if", "else", "then", "while", "for",
"repeat", "do", "until", ":", "end",
"and", "or", "not", "in", "to",
"down", "let", "return", "goto")
```

Note that for each of the above terms, `_algo-default-keywords` also contains the uppercase form of the term (e.g. "for" and "For").

* `comment-prefix`: `content` — What to prepend comments with.

* `indent-size`: `length` — Size of line indentations.

* `indent-guides`: `stroke` — Stroke for indent guides.

* `indent-guides-offset`: `length` — Horizontal offset of indent guides.

* `row-gutter`: `length` — Space between lines.

* `column-gutter`: `length` — Space between line numbers, text, and comments.

* `inset`: `length` — Size of inner padding.

* `fill`: `color` — Fill color.

* `stroke`: `stroke` — Stroke for the element's border.

* `radius`: `length` — Corner radius.

* `breakable`: `boolean` — Whether the element can break across pages. WARNING: indent guides may look off when broken across pages.

* `block-align`: `none` or `alignment` or `2d alignment` — Alignment of the `algo` on the page. Using `none` will cause the internal `block` element to be returned as-is.

* `main-text-styles`: `dictionary` — Styling options for the main algorithm text. Supports all parameters in Typst's native `text` function.

* `comment-styles`: `dictionary` — Styling options for comment text. Supports all parameters in Typst's native `text` function.

* `line-number-styles`: `dictionary` — Styling options for line numbers. Supports all parameters in Typst's native `text` function.

### `i` and `d`

For use in an `algo` body. `#i` indents all following lines and `#d` dedents all following lines.

### `comment`

For use in an `algo` body. Adds a comment to the line in which it's placed.

```typst
comment(
body,
inline: false
)
```

**Parameters:**

* `body`: `content` — Comment content.

* `inline`: `boolean` — If true, the comment is displayed in place rather than on the right side.

NOTE: inline comments will respect both `main-text-styles` and `comment-styles`, preferring `comment-styles` when the two conflict.

NOTE: to make inline comments insensitive to `strong-keywords`, strong emphasis is disabled within them. This can be circumvented via the `text` function:

```typst
#comment(inline: true)[#text(weight: 700)[...]]
```

### `no-emph`

For use in an `algo` body. Prevents the passed content from being strongly emphasized. If a word appears in your algorithm both as a keyword and as normal text, you may escape the non-keyword usages via this function.

```typst
no-emph(
body
)
```

**Parameters:**

* `body`: `content` — Content to display without emphasis.

### `code`

Makes a code block element.

```typst
code(
body,
line-numbers: true,
indent-guides: none,
indent-guides-offset: 0pt,
tab-size: auto,
row-gutter: 10pt,
column-gutter: 10pt,
inset: 10pt,
fill: rgb(98%, 98%, 98%),
stroke: 1pt + rgb(50%, 50%, 50%),
radius: 0pt,
breakable: false,
block-align: center,
main-text-styles: (:),
line-number-styles: (:)
)
```

**Parameters:**

* `body`: `content` — Main content. Expects `raw` text.

* `line-numbers`: `boolean` — Whether to display line numbers.

* `indent-guides`: `stroke` — Stroke for indent guides.

* `indent-guides-offset`: `length` — Horizontal offset of indent guides.

* `tab-size`: `integer` — Amount of spaces that should be considered an indent. If unspecified, the tab size is determined automatically from the first instance of starting whitespace.

* `row-gutter`: `length` — Space between lines.

* `column-gutter`: `length` — Space between line numbers and text.

* `inset`: `length` — Size of inner padding.

* `fill`: `color` — Fill color.

* `stroke`: `stroke` — Stroke for the element's border.

* `radius`: `length` — Corner radius.

* `breakable`: `boolean` — Whether the element can break across pages. WARNING: indent guides may look off when broken across pages.

* `block-align`: `none` or `alignment` or `2d alignment` — Alignment of the `code` on the page. Using `none` will cause the internal `block` element to be returned as-is.

* `main-text-styles`: `dictionary` — Styling options for the main raw text. Supports all parameters in Typst's native `text` function.

* `line-number-styles`: `dictionary` — Styling options for line numbers. Supports all parameters in Typst's native `text` function.
