Figures

To insert a figure in a LaTeX document, you write lines like this:

\begin{figure}

    \centering

    \includegraphics[width=3.0in]{imagefile1}

    \caption{Caption for figure}

    \label{fig:sample_figure}

\end{figure}

The whole block is enclosed between \begin{figure} and \end{figure}. The command \includegraphics does the actual insertion of the image. Here the file name of the inserted image is imagefile1.
If you are using LaTeX to process your document, .eps extension is
appended automatically to the file name. If you are using pdfLaTeX, it
appends .pdf, .png, or .jpg when searching for the image file.

By default, figures are looked for in the current directory (the one
in which your .tex file is located). If you want to specify a path for
the \includegraphics command, remember to use forward
slashes (/) as directory separators, not backslashes. For example, if
your figures are in a sub-directory named "figures" inside the current
directory, you write something like this: \includegraphics[width=3.0in]{figures/imagefile1}.

You can also specify the width of the image. The height of the
figure is scaled proportionally so the image doesn't get distorted.
Specify the width as a parameter (enclosed in brackets [ ]) to the \includegraphics
command. Acceptable measurement units are for example in, mm, and cm.
You can make the figure's width equal to the width of paragraph text
lines by using [width=\linewidth], or, for example, three quarters of the text width by using [width=0.75\linewidth].

Here we have used a \centering command to center the figure in the column. The \caption command gives a caption for the figure. We have also added a \label, which is useful when you want to refer to the figure in your text (see References).

Remember to always keep the commands in this order: First \includegraphics, then \caption, and finally \label. This way you get figure references right and captions underneath figures. Additionally, keep the \label and \caption commands always inside the \begin{figure}...\end{figure} structure.

You can specify the locations where the figure (or table) is allowed
to be placed by using placement parameters. For example, to put a
figure at the bottom of page, you type \begin{figure}[b]. To allow a figure to be placed only at the top of page, write \begin{figure}[t]. To allow both locations, use [tb]. Other options are described, for instance, in Chapter 9 of Online tutorials on LaTeX.

If you don't yet know how to create EPS images for LaTeX documents, read the Creating figures tutorial.

Subfigures

If you want to divide a figure into many smaller parts, use the \subfigure command. First, you have to add this in the beginning of your .tex file:

\usepackage{subfigure}

Let's add three small figures in place of one normal figure:

\begin{figure}

    \centering

    \subfigure[First caption]

    {

        \includegraphics[width=1.0in]{imagefile2}

        \label{fig:first_sub}

    }

    \\

    \subfigure[Second caption]

    {

        \includegraphics[width=1.0in]{imagefile2}

        \label{fig:second_sub}

    }

    \subfigure[Third caption]

    {

        \includegraphics[width=1.0in]{imagefile2}

        \label{fig:third_sub}

    }

    \caption{Common figure caption.}

    \label{fig:sample_subfigures}

\end{figure}

The result is:

Write as many \subfigure commands as you need. \subfigure
takes an argument (enclosed in brackets [ ]) which specifies the
caption for that subfigure. You don't need to write the labels (a),
(b), (c), etc., because LaTeX adds them automatically. Then put the \includegraphics and \label
commands between { and } of the subfigure. Here we use an image file
named imagefile2.eps. We have also specified a width for each image
using the optional width parameter of the \includegraphics command.

Note the \\ after the first subfigure. This command creates a line
break. In this case, it separates the three subfigures into two rows.
Without the \\ all the three subfigures may end up in just one row. You
can try the \\ also in other places and see its effect.

Finally, we put one more \caption and \label. These are for the whole three-part figure element.

Tables

A table in LaTeX may look a bit scary bunch of code at first. But
you can copy and paste the basic lines that are needed. Then inserting
your own text into the table is a piece of cake. Here we go:

\begin{table}

\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.3}

\caption{Simple table}

\label{tab:example}

\centering

\begin{tabular}{c|c}

    \hline

    Heading One  &  Heading Two\\

    \hline

    \hline



    Three   &   Four\\

    \hline


    Five    &   Six\\

    \hline

\end{tabular}

\end{table}

The result will look like this (using IEEE's style):

Hence it's a table with two columns and three rows. Here is how you
organize the text in a table: In each table cell write the the text
that you want to appear in the cell. Then type & when you want to
jump to the next column. A new table row begins when you type \\. You
can insert horizontal lines using the command \hline.

Here we have specified the column format like this: \begin{tabular}{c|c}. Every letter c, l, or r denotes a column and | represents a vertical line between columns. c creates a column with centered text, l is for left aligned text, and r for right aligned. Thus, c|c creates two columns with centered text and a vertical line between them.

To get double lines between columns, use || instead of single |. To
get no line between columns, omit the |. More columns can be added by
using more c, l, or r letters. For example, this produces four columns with no vertical lines: lccc. Now the leftmost column is left aligned and the others are centered.

You may wonder about the strange line \renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.3}. This is needed for adjusting the white space around text in the table cells. The value 1.3 produces quite a pleasing look.

If you want to have the caption underneath the table, move the \caption and \label lines after the \end{tabular} line. Remember that the \caption command must be before \label.

Double column figures and tables

If you are writing a two column document and you would like to
insert a wide figure or table that spans the whole page width, use the
"starred" versions of the figure and table constructs. Like this:

\begin{figure*}

    \centering

    \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{imagefile1}

    \caption{This is a wide figure}

    \label{fig:large}

\end{figure*}

You can use also subfigures inside figure*. An adequate width specifier for a double column figure is width=\textwidth. This makes the figure wide enough to span the whole body width (all columns) of the page.

A double column table is created in a similar way by using \begin{table*} and \end{table*}. Write the contents of the table in the usual way.

Note that double column figures and tables have some limitations.
They can't be placed at the bottom of pages. Additionally, they will
not appear on the same page where they are defined. So you have to
define them prior to the page on which they should appear.

Equations

Short mathematical expressions can be inserted within paragraph text by putting the math between $ signs. For example:

... angle frequency $\omega = 2\pi f$ ...

This is called an inline equation. The result is:
.

In equations, the normal text symbols are written as such, for example 2 and f. Greek symbols are named for example \alpha, \beta
and so on. You don't need to remember these because in WinEdt and
TeXnicCenter you can use symbol toolbars, which have buttons for Greek
letters and other math symbols.

Numbered equations are separate from paragraph text and LaTeX
numbers them automatically. The contents are written using the same
ideas as inline equations but now we write \begin{equation} and \end{equation} instead of $ signs. For example:

\begin{equation}

    \label{eq:kinetic_energy}

    E_{k} = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

\end{equation}

The result is:

Here we learn some structures which are often used in equations: The \frac
command creates a fraction. Write the contents of the numerator and
denominator inside the curly braces. Subscripts and superscripts are
created using _{} and ^{}. (If the content of the subscript or superscript is a single symbol, you can omit the curly braces like this: E_k and v^2.)

You can freely type spaces in equations. LaTeX ignores extra spaces
and determines automatically where (and how wide) space is needed (for
example, on both sides of the = sign). However, line breaks are not
allowed. Spaces are needed also to separate LaTeX commands. For
instance, if you want to print , you must type \beta A, not \betaA. The latter one won't compile because LaTeX is looking for a command named betaA.

Occasionally spaces in equations may need some fine adjustment. For example, consider the following two equations:

Equation (1) has been created by simply typing f_{res} = 500 MHz. It seems to have several problems:

• The unit "MHz" and the subscript "res" have an incorrect
  spacing between letters. This is a common problem in variable names,
  subscripts, and units that consist of several letters. LaTeX
  understands "res" as a product of variables r, e, and s. Thus it adds a
  small space between each multiplicand. To fix the problems, write \mathrm{res} and \mathrm{MHz} . The "mathrm" stands for math "roman" (upright) font style.


• The unit "MHz" and the subscript "res" should be typed with upright font, not italic. The aforementioned \mathrm command fixes this problem. If you, instead, want to use italic font, replace \mathrm with \mathit.


• In
  equation (1), there is hardly any space between the number and the
  unit. LaTeX has thought that you want to multiply 500 times "MHz" and
  thus it removes all spaces you write here. To force a visible space,
  use command \,.

Here is the final fixed content of the equation, which produces the result (2) as shown above:

f_{\mathrm{res}} = 500 \, \mathrm{MHz}
