What can I do with the algorithmicx package?

What can I do with the algorithmicx package?

Abstract The algorithmicx package provides many possibilities to customize the layout of algorithms. You can use one of the predefined layouts (pseudocode, pascal and c and others), with or without modifications, or you can define a completely new layout for your specific needs.

Is the algcompatible package compatible with the algorithmic package?

algcompatible is fully compatible with the algorithmic package, it should be used only in old documents. algpascal aims to create a formatted pascal program, it performs automatic indentation (!), so you can transform a pascal program into an algpascal algorithm description with some basic substitution rules.

What do the optional lines in algorithmicx mean?

Each algorithm begins with the begin{algorithmic}[lines] command, the optional lines controls the line numbering: 0 means no line numbering, 1 means number every line, and n means number lines n, 2n, 3n… until the end{algorithmic} command, witch ends the algorithm. A simple line of text is beginned with State.

Do you need a macro to use algorithmicx?

The package algorithmicx itself doesn’t define any algorithmic commands, but gives a set of macros to define such a command set. You may use only algorithmicx, and define the commands yourself, or you may use one of the predefined command sets.

How to set comments flush in latex algorithmic?

I assume that they will. \\hfill will set the comments flush right, while \\hspace {space} will give you that much space between your text. good luck. If you want own indentions for different algorithms, you could do this by including the counter in the redefinition of the comment commands.

Which is compatible with algpseudocode in algorithmicx?

Consider using the compatible (modernized) algorithmicx bundle which offers algpseudocode. Here’s a duplicate of the above MWE, now with the updated algpseudocode package:

How to add comment in algorithm-TeX LaTeX Stack Exchange?

I would like to have my algorithm look like this: Well, with your used packages you can use the command \\COMMENT to add an comment to a line, if you want the comment to end on the right side use \\hfill\\COMMENT.

How to add a comment to a line?

Well, with your used packages you can use the command \\COMMENT to add an comment to a line, if you want the comment to end on the right side use \\hfill\\COMMENT. See an example here (please note that I minimalized your given algorithm and I reduced the called packages to that one needed for this issue):
