Magda is a Report Latex Template created thinking about non LaTeX users, providing easy writing and commands for people without any knowledge about TeX or LaTeX.
The most practical way to learn how to use the template is by opening in your editor of preference and analyze the code already provided or by creating a new project with the template in overleaf. In the template will be a step by step guide how to work with it.
The abstract is supposed to be a brief resume of what the report will be about and the objectives.
To use equations you can make them inline like this $x = y + z$
or you can do them like this:
\begin{equation}\label{eq:timehtol}
\int_{0}^{tp_{HL}}dt = tp_{HL} = -C_L \int_{V_{dd}}^{V_{dd}/2}\frac{1}{I_{DSN}} dV_O
\end{equation}
And you can reference it like this equation~\ref{eq:timehtol}
. It will automatically change if you put other equations before, so this way you don't need to worry about numbering.
Images are placed like the example bellow. You can tune the width to make it fit your needs, it can take any units (cm, in, em ...). To reference an image you can follow the same approach as in equations: image~\ref{img:engeniuslogo}
.
\begin{figure}[H]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[width=\textwidth/3]{src/engeniusLogo.png}
\caption{Engenius Image Example}
\label{img:engeniuslogo}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
Raw code can be inserted inline like this \mintinline{python}{print("Hello world!")}
, or in a box like the one bellow. Check our code to see how to do it.
\begin{codebox}{Example Code}
\begin{minted}{C}
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
// printf() displays the string inside quotation
printf("Hello, World!");
return 0;
}
\end{minted}
\end{codebox}
References must be used when you use information from external sources. Your bibliography must be in the file ./biblio.bib
structured like the examples already there.
To cite something just use \cite{name}
, like this \cite{einstein}
. The reference will then show in the references section.
This template was originally created by me (Diogo Correia) and João Santos for the Engenius UA Formula Student team, and this a port that allows a more user friendly customization of the template for general use. The template followed the design patterns of Universidade de Aveiro latex templates. Some code was also derived from there. The source files and information about the templates can be found here.
