What is it?

Thanks to Template Beamer UFC. This template is modified based on that project.

This project aims to create a template for presentation for the Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU). It was created a class called xjtlu_format.cls with a set of environments and commands related to the document. This template is not an official document from the XJTLU. However, this template can be used to create classes, presentations, short courses, etc.

It is possible to insert codes in this presentation. This template uses two packages for algorithms: algorithm2e and listings.

• Documentation

  • algorithm2e: Algorithm2e Package Documentation

  • listings: Listings Package Documentation

The following example shows how to create a pseudocode:

\begin{algorithm}[H]
    \SetAlgoLined #includes indentation
    \LinesNumbered #includes lines number
    \SetKwInOut{Input}{input}
    \SetKwInOut{Output}{output}
    \Input{write the input}
    \Output{write the output}
    \KwData{write the data}
    \KwResult{Write the result}
    initialization\;
    \While{While condition}
    {
        instructions\;
        \eIf{condition}{
           instructions1\;
           instructions2\;
           }{
           instructions3\;
        }
    } 
    \caption{How to write algorithms}
\end{algorithm}

The following example shows how to insert a code that is in the project files:

\begin{frame}{Including Codes}
    \lstset{language=Python}
    \lstinputlisting[language=Python]{path_of_python_code.py}
\end{frame}

The following example shows how to insert a figure:

\begin{figure}
    \centering
    \caption{Caption of the Figure}
    \includegraphics[scale=1]{path_of_the_figure}
    \source{Source of the Figure}
    \label{fig:figlabel}
\end{figure}

The following example shows how to insert a multi-columns:

\begin{columns}{}
    \begin{column}{0.5\textwidth}
        \justify
        Text of the left side!
    \end{column}
    \begin{column}{0.5\textwidth}
        \justify
        Text of the right side!
    \end{column}
\end{columns}
