Table Management

Table-related files for the manuscript.

Directory Structure

compiled/: Compiled LaTeX files for each table (auto-generated)
contents/: Source directory for table files
Place .csv data files here
Create matching .tex caption file with same name
_.XX.tex: Template file for table captions

Naming Conventions

All tables must follow this naming pattern:

.XX_descriptive_name.[csv|tex]

Where:
- Table_ID is the fixed prefix
- XX is a two-digit table number (e.g., 01, 02)
- descriptive_name is an optional descriptive name (e.g., parameters, results)
- The extension is either .csv (for data files) or .tex (for caption files)

Important: The table number (XX) is used to generate LaTeX reference labels in the format \label{tab:XX}.

Usage

Creating a Table

Prepare your table data:
Create a CSV file with your table data
Use comma as separator
Include header row for column names
Example CSV Format:
csv Parameter,Value,Unit Length,10.5,cm Width,5.2,cm Height,3.7,cm
Add to SciTex:
Place the CSV file in the contents/ directory
Create a caption file with the same name but .tex extension
Use the template from _.XX.tex
Caption Template:
latex \caption{\textbf{ TABLE TITLE HERE } \smallskip \\ TABLE LEGEND HERE. } % width=1\textwidth

Referencing Tables

To reference tables in your manuscript text, use:

Table~\ref{tab:XX}

Where XX is the ID number from the table filename (e.g., Table~\ref{tab:01} for .01_parameters.csv).

Example Structure

tables/
├── compiled/
│   └── .01_parameters.tex    # Auto-generated during compilation
└── contents/
    ├── .01_parameters.csv    # Data file
    ├── .01_parameters.tex    # Caption file
    └── _.XX.tex              # Template file

# Table Management
Table-related files for the manuscript.
## Directory Structure
- `compiled/`: Compiled LaTeX files for each table (auto-generated)
- `contents/`: Source directory for table files
  - Place `.csv` data files here
  - Create matching `.tex` caption file with same name
  - `_.XX.tex`: Template file for table captions
## Naming Conventions
All tables must follow this naming pattern:
```
.XX_descriptive_name.[csv|tex]
```
Where:
- `Table_ID` is the fixed prefix
- `XX` is a two-digit table number (e.g., 01, 02)
- `descriptive_name` is an optional descriptive name (e.g., parameters, results)
- The extension is either `.csv` (for data files) or `.tex` (for caption files)
**Important**: The table number (`XX`) is used to generate LaTeX reference labels in the format `\label{tab:XX}`.
## Usage
### Creating a Table
1. **Prepare your table data**:
   - Create a CSV file with your table data
   - Use comma as separator
   - Include header row for column names
2. **Example CSV Format**:
   ```csv
   Parameter,Value,Unit
   Length,10.5,cm
   Width,5.2,cm
   Height,3.7,cm
   ```
3. **Add to SciTex**:
   - Place the CSV file in the `contents/` directory
   - Create a caption file with the same name but `.tex` extension
   - Use the template from `_.XX.tex`
4. **Caption Template**:
   ```latex
   \caption{\textbf{
   TABLE TITLE HERE
   }
   \smallskip
   \\
   TABLE LEGEND HERE.
   }
   % width=1\textwidth
   ```
### Referencing Tables
To reference tables in your manuscript text, use:
```latex
Table~\ref{tab:XX}
```
Where `XX` is the ID number from the table filename (e.g., `Table~\ref{tab:01}` for `.01_parameters.csv`).
## Example Structure
```

│   └── .01_parameters.tex    # Auto-generated during compilation
└── contents/
    ├── .01_parameters.csv    # Data file
    ├── .01_parameters.tex    # Caption file
    └── _.XX.tex              # Template file
