\section{Abstract}
\italk{Welcome to the \LaTeX\ ``ndsu-thesis-2022'' document class (NDSU class hereafter) and this document serves as an \textcolor{magenta}{\emph{extended example}} of a template. The users are urged to first get familiarized with the \textcolor{magenta}{\emph{NDSU class documentation}}, where most of the instructions for developing the thesis/dissertation using the NDSU class are clearly outlined. The NDSU class tries to address several dissertation requirements that graduate students come to expect from a template. While \LaTeX\ provides several tools to create a professional-looking document, it requires some learning --- a new set of skills is always a desirable thing to have, especially for students. Several leading universities have their \emph{thesis} class and template to help their students, and NDSU is no different (we do have our thesis class, and being used by several students!). The NDSU \LaTeX\ class (previous and updated) even features in the CTAN (Comprehensive \TeX\ Archive Network) repository of \LaTeX. CTAN is the central archive location that currently (July 2022) has 6249 packages from 2869 contributors, and most of the packages are free to download and use immediately. A search on ``thesis'' returns 114 hits in CTAN, showing the popularity of universities developing their \LaTeX\ class to help their grad students with dissertations. Given the quality of output, no wonder that several publishing houses (peer-reviewed journals and books) use \LaTeX\ as their system and provide authors with templates and reference styles. In this document/chapter, we outline and provide illustrations of using the updated NDSU class for developing thesis/dissertations, and users should note that this document itself uses the updated NDSU class.\\

\section{Introduction --- Second Section After Abstract --- \LaTeX\ as a Tool for Students/Researchers}
\italk{Students having some exposure to computer programming, which is quite common nowadays, find their way easily with \LaTeX\ as it follows structure principles (e.g., HTML, program codes requiring open and end braces/brackets, etc.). It is interesting to hear what the creator of \LaTeX\ says on this:}
\textcolor{magenta}{
\begin{quote}
\singlespacing
\raggedright
\textit{
\LaTeX\ is easy to use --- if you're one of the \pr{2} of the population who thinks logically and can read an instruction manual. The other \pt{98} of the population would find it very hard or impossible to use.}
\hfill --- Leslie Lamport (2001)
\end{quote}
}
\italk{As mentioned in the class documentation, it is safe to assume that students of higher education who have come this far should have ``cared enough'' to improve the quality of their thesis/dissertation. On the other hand, some who may think they fall in the 98\,\% might discover that they have better logical skills than they originally believed. Based on our personal experience, \LaTeX\ is not as difficult as it was portrayed, and the benefits outweigh the effort (which is also a great skill to be acquired). Furthermore, using \LaTeX\ for documentation needs (e.g., thesis/dissertation, paper, report, book, letter, CV, and so on) should be considered a useful skill in itself that students can pick up and use throughout their career.

\subsection{Using and Installing \LaTeX\ --- Online and Desktop Environments} \index{online editor} \index{standalone editor}
\italk{\emph{This text was reproduced from the NDSU class documentation (Sec. 2) for ready reference.} Several online (e.g., Overleaf, Kile LaTex Editor, Authorea, Papeeria, and so on) and standalone desktop versions (e.g., TeXMaker, TeXWorks, TexShop, TeXStudio, and so on) of \LaTeX\ editors are available. Online editors are ``ready-to-go,'' with several templates, tutorials, and help documentation, where the user does not need to install the software but requires an internet connection. The desktop version requires software installation and updating (not very frequently). Resources (text and video instructions) are available on both how to use the online editor and install the \LaTeX\ desktop version of the users' choice. As \LaTeX\ is open source, most of these editors are free.}

\section{Merits and Issues of Using \lx}
\italk{The advantages and the possible issues (Summarized from \citet{cannayen2011latex}) of using \lx as the system, especially for preparing articles, thesis, and books from the viewpoint of students and professionals, both beginners and advanced users, are listed and discussed subsequently.}
%-------------------------------------------
\subsection{Advantages}
\begin{itemize}[leftmargin=*, itemsep=0pt, parsep=3pt]
\item \italk{\lx is easy to learn and is an excellent software given its functionality, automation, and quality. With a vibrant online community and a vast array of resources, any issue faced can be readily solved using online resources. There is no need to memorize all the commands, as cheat sheets and other helpful resources are readily available. The fact that folks from linguistics use \lx shows that it is no longer connected only with mathematics and physics.}
\item \italk{ If you can be comfortable with \emph{closing} an opened bracket as \textcolor{magenta}{\{} with a \textcolor{magenta}{\}}, and \emph{end} opened environment command as \textcolor{magenta}{\cmd{begin\{figure\}}} with a \textcolor{magenta}{\cmd{end}\{figure\}} you are good to start using \lx. And it is that easy and logical to work with.}
\item \italk{\lx is an open source, free yet advanced, software that can be readily downloaded and installed easily in every type of computing system (Windows, Linux, Unix, DOS, and Mac OS). \lx is also a system that grows, benefiting from the user-developed codes (classes, packages, and templates), and all these updates are again open source and free to use.}
\item \italk{\lx allows the user to concentrate on the content while \lx performs the consistent formatting. Although typed with different spaces and tabs \lx codes will produce the same output irrespective of the user and system used. In other words, the author does the ``writing'' and the \lx compiler performs the consistent ``formatting.'' --- In text processing systems (TPS), without a template different users will produce different outputs that lack consistency, but using a \lx class file, an essential argument of `\vb{documentclass},' ensures consistency across users.}
\item \italk{\lx packs in the sound principles of professional typesetting while formatting the documents. This introduces the concept of ``readability'' of documents that takes care of features like the number of words per line, their spacing, hyphenation, spacing of elements with reference to font size, ligature, etc. --- Authors, in general, may not be aware of these principles of typesetting, and they go by ``visual formatting'' to their personal preference, sometimes violating the principles of typesetting, resulting in documents that lack consistency across authors, while \lx does the ``logical formatting'' that is well suited for technical documents.}
\item \italk{\lx automates and updates several aspects of the document, such as table of contents (short and extended), list of tables, list of figures, index (multi-level), bibliography, nomenclature, glossary, among several other features. As \lx forces the users to follow the ``structural'' principles, automation of these features was possible and fully realized. --- Although such automation was possible with other TPS, the users are mostly unaware or rarely use them. Hence, this opportunity is usually \emph{missed} with TPS, but the benefits come naturally with \lx as it is a ``structural'' language.}
\item \italk{\lx is an excellent choice of a document preparation system for technical theses, reports, and books. For the thesis, some of the universities have developed their \lx document class and template files, and when utilized, will create a uniform feel for all the theses prepared. --- This uniform style among these is possible with other TPS as well through templates, yet the other automation benefits are not quite common with TPS.}
\item \italk{Moving document elements while revising the document that calls for updating the numbers of the cited elements (headings, equations, floats, table of contents, index, etc.) will be handled automatically. --- This, in the traditional manual way, will be tedious and highly error-prone.}
\item \italk{The user can have all the references in one place as a \bx ($\ast$.\vb{bib}) flat-file that can have several hundred entries, yet being ASCII, the size will be quite small. For example, for a 100-article entry, with 1757 lines of data, the size of the bib file is 68 KB, as opposed to the same content in the TPS doc file, which is 192 KB. Such master bib files will serve as the ``Once Write and Read Many'' mode of operation and can be subjected to several style formats directly. --- Usually, such automation with TPS may require additional commercial software (e.g., EndNote).}
\item \italk{The references will be automatically generated with proper format when appropriate style files are used. This avoids the classical error of \emph{uncited references} and \emph{unlisted references}, which eliminates the need for the reviewer to check for this unproductive and easily avoidable mistake from the authors. With some styles (e.g., \vb{chicagoa.bst}), the reference items get sorted alphabetically. --- This is a clear advantage over other manual document preparation systems.}
\item \italk{\lx measurements are very accurate, and the smallest dimension it can recognize is `\vb{sp}' (scaled point) and 65536 sp make 1 \vb{pt} that in turn $\approx$ 0.351366666666667 mm \citep{Wikibook2016}. Therefore, the smallest dimension that is available in \lx for manipulating elements (e.g., moving and sizing) is approximately $\frac{1}{186517}$ mm = 0.00536 $\mu$m. --- Such fine-tuning of elements is unheard of with TPS in general.}
\item \italk{Users can generate the submission-ready double-spaced ``review'' as well as two-column, double-sided, single-spaced ``final'' formats of the paper from the same source by utilizing appropriate options in the document class (e.g., \vb{elsarticle.cls}). --- Usually, with TPS, the user has to create two different versions manually.}
\item \italk{It is possible to submit the rendered PDF version of the paper ($\ast$\vb{.pdf}) directly to the publishers (e.g., Elsevier Editorial System - EES), and after acceptance, the source code files ($\ast$\vb{.tex}) can be uploaded. This method subsequently allows for direct usage of the codes by the publishers during proofs production, without having to re-key or convert articles submitted using other TPS. --- Hence, the usage of \lx results in quicker production and fewer errors in typesetting.}
\item \italk{Journal articles that are camera-ready, professionally typeset, journal-feel, compact (usually $\le$12 pages), offprint-like, easy to maintain, having better readability can be prepared using \lx document classes ($\ast$\vb{.cls}) and templates furnished by several journals. --- However, with TPS, the users usually end up with only the double-spaced version of the pre-submitted article (editable, very long, $\approx$ 20--40 pages), and the officially generated version of the submitted article (PDF non-editable). The TPS tools are either not capable or do not encourage the authors to make outputs that resemble the final offprint, and they usually wait (sometimes for years) for the article to be finally published to see the paper in journal format.}
\item \italk{Several journals, due to copyright restrictions, will not allow posting the published versions of the articles on the websites of the authors; however, the journals allow posting the preprint version prepared by the author. --- With \lx as the system of document preparation, the user can produce an output that has the journal feel and almost matches the published article, which enhances the authors' visibility and possible future citations from other readers.}
\item \italk{Advanced conditional formatting and handling of other features can be performed in \lx using the `\vb{ifthen}' \cptp package. For instance, the command} \ifthenelse{\boolean{@twocolumn}}{}{\\}\vbc{ifthenelse
\{\textbackslash boolean\{$@$twocolumn\}\}\{\}\{\textbackslash linenumbers\}\}} \italk{produces line numbers only when the document mode is single column format (e.g., review format). --- This is similar to using the ``If-Then-Else'' statement frequently used in programming languages for conditional controls.}
\item \italk{Document annotation features such as strikeout (\dt{``deleted text''}), inserted (\nt{``newly added''}), and highlighted (\hl{``deserves attention''}) text materials are incorporated using \vbc{sout\{text\}}, \vbc{textcolor\{color\}\{text\}}, and \vbc{hl\{text\}} commands. --- To use these features, `\vb{ulem}', `\vb{color}', and `\vb{soul}' packages should be included.}
\item \italk{Footnotes (see below; the command is \cmd{footnote\{text\}})\footnote{This is the footnote text and the footnote mark was automatically generated!}, margin notes {\marginpar{\scriptsize\textcolor{red}{This is a margin note shown in color.}}} (shown in red), and endnotes were also used to annotate the manuscript. It is equally possible to have these features in black \& white and with shades of grey. --- These commands can be simplified by defining shortcuts.}
\item \italk{Using advanced conditional formatting, a single source code could produce the ``Annotated'' (color-coded revised version showing inserted and deleted text) and ``Revised'' (updated final) versions of the journal articles. --- It is a common practice in the peer-reviewed article publication process during revision to create such versions. This usually takes the preparation of two different versions with the usual TPS.}
\item \italk{With \lx book document class such as `\vb{memoir.cls},' high-quality books with several professional layouts can be prepared. --- For very large books \lx is the non-crashing, reliable system available and offers several tasks automation.}
\item \italk{Advanced use of \lx allows for drawing figures through `\vb{pstricks}' or `\vb{eepic}' packages that offer extended capabilities and produce good quality vectorized ($\ast$.\vb{eps} files) mathematical, graphical, flowchart, and geometrical figures \citep{Goossens2008g}. The method involves only codes prepared in ASCII text. --- This drawing capability is available through specific drawing tools in other TPS. Shown here is a generated picture using simple codes in `\vb{picture}' environment using \vbc{line}, and \vbc{multiput} commands, among others \citep{Kern2007a, Kern2007, Mittelbach2004}:}

\italk{However, it is also possible to draw some simple pictures using `\vb{picture}' environment directly in \lx, but they are restricted in their range. Shown below are simple drawings that used \vbc{circle}, \vbc{vector}, and \vbc{framebox} commands, among others.}

\put(150,50){\small $\textrm{Area}= x^2$}
\end{picture}
\noindent \italk{The above drawings are vector-based and will retain their quality at any level of magnification.}
\item \italk{\lx can also be used to create conference posters (e.g., \vb{a0poster.cls} and \vb{sciposter.cls}) and presentation slides (e.g., \vb{beamer.cls} and \vb{prosper.cls}) using appropriate classes and packages.}
\item \italk{Students could be able to convert their thesis into a journal article with a few easy modifications, as the basic \lx code is the same irrespective of the documentclass or template.}
\item \italk{A knowledge of \lx forms a useful skill set for the students for pursuing an academic, research, or educational career. One can take advantage of the available various journals, books, curriculum vitae, reports, and thesis styles provided by the publishers and other online sources.}

\subsection{Possible Issues --- And Our Takes}
\begin{itemize}[leftmargin=*, itemsep=0pt, parsep=3pt]
\item \italk{People hold the idea that ``a steep learning curve is involved with \lx.'' However, users with programming knowledge (graduate students and researchers) will find it easy to switch from any TPS. Our experience says that it is quite logical to approach and fun to learn this excellent documentation tool. It should be seen as an opportunity to learn an important tool rather than looking at it as a steep learning exercise. One of the ready-to-work online platforms is \href{https://www.overleaf.com/login}{\textcolor{magenta}{\underline{Overleaf}}} where students can readily dive in and easily work with \lx and obtain various templates and helpful documentation all in one place. Steep learning curves are always associated with any new programming language or software. Mastering and exploring several aspects of \lx definitely requires involvement from the users, but a lot of help is also readily available on the internet.}
\item \italk{Since \lx is an open source free software that is not a product of any commercial firm, there will not be official support, but \lx purchased through commercial sources will. However, using books, websites, cheatsheets, mailing lists, and forums could solve most of the issues.}
\item \italk{Developing user-defined classes, templates, and packages will be quite complicated, as it requires knowledge of plain \tx and \lx codes. Although it should be understood that with thorough knowledge and understanding of the existing codes, it is possible to develop them as they are added on a regular basis by developers throughout the world, enriching the system. However, there is no need for a general user to venture into those areas, as most of the document preparation requirements could be addressed by employing the available sources.}
\item \italk{Debugging the code needs some practice. As with any computer language, missing a symbol will stop the compilation with error messages or produce several errors. With experience, the users can able to decipher the error messages better and fix the code easily.}
\item \italk{A reviewer or collaborating authors should know \lx in order to incorporate the suggestions and modify the document at the source level. The student \& advisor should be ``\lx aware'' or at least ``support'' the rendered output for the collaboration to work well. The ``Track-changes'' feature available with TPS is not directly available with \lx but available through specific packages. However, this is not an issue for one with a working knowledge of \lx; as one can readily make annotations such as insert, delete, highlight, and comment the document with color codes and special notes (e.g., footnotes, margin notes, endnotes) as indicated earlier.}
\item \italk{Although the ``spelling check'' facility is available with several \lx front-end editors, the ``grammar checking'' facility that is usually available with TPS is not available at present in \lx editors. However, other free tools (e.g., Grammarly and several others) can be used.}
\item \italk{Sometimes, especially when relying solely on online resources, there will be a lot of searching to find the right information to perform a particular task. Is it not a common feature of any good research (where we search for the information)?}

\subsection{Modern \LaTeX\ Commands --- Calculations}
\italk{The modern \LaTeX\ has several new functionalities \citep{latxprojteam22}. Several new document commands and environments were now available for use. For example, simple calculations can be produced using \cmd{fpeval\{expression\}} the floating point evaluation command as:}
\verb|\fpeval{2*3*100+6}| = \fpeval{2*3*100+6}; \hspace{0.15in} Follows the standard PEMDAS rule
\verb|\fpeval{2*(10+6)}| = \fpeval{2*(10+6)}
\verb|\fpeval{22/7}| = \fpeval{22/7}
\verb|\fpeval{pi}| = \fpeval{pi}; \hspace{0.15in} So, $\pi$ is $\neq$ 22/7 (only good to 3 digits)
\verb|\fpeval{round(pi, 3)}| = \fpeval{round(pi, 3)}; \hspace{0.15in} Rounded to 3 decimals
\verb+\fpeval{deg}+ = \fpeval{deg}; \hspace{0.15in} 1 degree in radian
\verb+\fpeval{180*deg}+ = \fpeval{180*deg}; \hspace{0.15in} 180 degree in radian ($\pi$ rad)
\verb|\LaTeX\ can now compute: $\frac{\sin(3.5)}{2} + 2 \cdot 10^{-3}|
\verb| = \fpeval{sin(3.5)/2 + 2e-3}$|
\lx can now compute: $\frac{\sin(3.5)}{2} + 2 \cdot 10^{-3} = \fpeval{sin(3.5)/2 + 2e-3}$
\italk{These mathematical functions find use in calculations and technical document preparation. An application of this \cmd{fpeval\{\}} command can be found in \Cref{tab210} code with table presented in \cpageref{tab210}}.

\italk{Equations should follow the established convention --- and loosely coding the equation and its elements is simply unprofessional. In general, such conventions, if not taken with specific care, will be overlooked, and the user feels no harm done. It was noticed that several published papers carry these mistakes --- which will not make it right, and users should not follow a bad example.}

\midrule
Abbrevia\-tions & ABEN, STD, TP, TN, FP, FN & \textcolor{red}{$ABEN, STD$, $TP, TN, FP$, $FN$} & Abbreviations, usually $>1$ letter long, should always be upright. This should be followed in regular text and in equations (use the \cmd{text\{\ldots\}} * in equations or math mode). Otherwise, it may be considered as a product of variables. \\
Variables & $T, P, V, t, v$ & \textcolor{red}{T, P, V, t, v} & Variables, usually 1 letter long, should always be typeset in italics. The italics font signifies technical symbols of variables (e.g., temperature, pressure, volume, time, velocity).\\
Subscripts and superscripts & $T_\text{avg}$, $\text{TP}_{\max}$, $\text{RMSE}_{\text{observed}}$, $v^\text{in}$, $t^\text{output}$, $P^\text{top}_\text{min}$

\section{Equation and Definition --- An Example}
The loading and unloading time can be determined using the number of bales generated and the loading and unloading time (min) per bale inputs as follows:
\myalign{
\te{Handling:}\quad T_\te{LU} & = \te{NB} \times (T_\te{L} + T_\te{U})/ 60
\label{tlu}\\
\te{Overall:}\quad T_\te{OT} & = (T_\te{LU} + T_\te{C}) / 60
\label{tot}
}
\noindent where, $T_\te{LU}$ is total bale loading and unloading time (h), NB is number of bales, $T_\te{L}$ is the loading time per bale (min), $T_\te{U}$ is the unloading time per bale (min), $T_\te{OT}$ is the overall bale movement time (h), and $T_\te{C}$ is the bale collection time (min).
\italk{Note the exact reproduction of the symbols in the definitions (font and format; \textcolor{magenta}{no wrong mixup of upright and italics characters with technical symbols!}) that followed the \cref{tlu,tot} in the order of left to right and top to bottom. It is also recommended to use the units of the symbols during the definition. Also, notice the use of noindent with ``where''.}

\section{Simple Tables}
\italk{Users are encouraged to refer to the Sec. 8.1 of the NDSU Class Documentation before seeing some of the examples presented in this chapter. Shown below is the most basic table using \lx \texttt{tabular} environment. Vertical lines (created by ``pipe'' character |), which are not generally used in professional tables, are shown to illustrate the column widths. However, | can be used for visualization during table development.}

\subsection{Tables with Fewer Columns}
\italk{NDSU recommends that fewer column tables can be coded in a compact manner using fixed-width for readability, while tables with more columns can run the full-width or be made into landscape tables. Compact tables with fewer columns are common and readily made by the common \texttt{tabular} and \texttt{table} environment (\cref{tab23a}).}
\begin{table}[ht!]

\end{tabular}
\label{tab23a}
\end{table}
\vspace{-2ex}
\italk{Where the columns will be based on the width of the widest entries, and the columns will be naturally spaced and result in a compact table with the total width usually less than the textwidth. No special action is necessary to make these tables. Tables of fewer columns and narrower widths need to be positioned on the page consistently. Either all of them left-justified or centered. Footnotes corresponding to the width of the table can be coded through the \cmd{multicolumn\{no of cols\}\{lcr\}\{text\}}\tb\tb for single line items or \cmd{multicolumn\{no of cols\}\{p\{dimension\}\}\{text\}} for footnotes that run like a paragraph (\cref{tab23a}). The width of the footnote is controlled by the amount of text or the dimension of the paragraph (refer to the ``\texttt{NDSU-Thesis-Extended.tex}'' for an example code).}
%-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
\section{Help with \LaTeX\ Tables}
\italk{The code for the \Cref{tab22,tab23a} may be a bit intimidating (really?), but it is just two nested environments (\vb{table} and \vb{tabular}). The layout is: \vb{table\{} -- \vb{caption} -- \vb{tabular\{} -- data rows -- \vb{tablular\}} -- \vb{label} -- \vb{table\}}. This layout, when looked at in an overall manner, is simple, and all tables follow the same pattern.}
\italk{\LaTeX installations will have some tools (e.g., IntelliSense code completion) that allow for developing table codes from scratch or pasting the copied table data from spreadsheets (e.g., ``Paste Spreadsheet Cells -- booktabs'' in Mac), making table creation easy. Also, there are several online tools \href{https://www.tablesgenerator.com}{\textcolor{magenta}{Table Generator}} and \href{https://www.latex-tables.com}{\textcolor{magenta}{LaTeX Tables Editor}} among others will help generate table codes from typed data, and imported files (*.csv, *.xls, etc.). Also, Excel Add-Ins such as \href{https://ctan.org/tex-archive/support/excel2latex?lang=en}{\textcolor{magenta}{Excel2\LaTeX}} will generate and export the table codes.
}
%-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
\section{Full-width Tables}
\italk{Unlike short-width tables with a few columns (\cref{tab21,tab22,tab23a}), based on the width of columns and the width exceeds about \pr{60}, it will be better to opt for full-width tables that look aligned with the surrounding text. We have two methods of achieving the full-width tables when required.}
%-------------------------------------------
\subsection{Manual Method --- Using Table Column Width}
\italk{One simple method is trial-and-error (manual) is to increase the tabular column separation width so that the table width fits the text width. The two commands \cmd{setlength\{}\cmd{tabcolsep\}} \vb{\{0.75in\}} (value of 0.34in obtained by trial-and-error) and \vbc{begin\{tabular\}\{ l| c| r| c| c \}} (rest of the code remains the same as in \cref{tab22}) created the table below (\cref{tab23}). It is possible to calculate the \vb{tabcolsep} based on the width of text elements and the number of gaps (2 * number of columns) with the use of \cmd{settowidth\{\ldots\}} and \cmd{fpeval\{\ldots\}} commands. Note the use of | was used for visualization (not to be used in professional documents).}
\begin{table}[ht!]
\centering
\caption{Professional looking full-width table using \cmd{tabcolsep} and \texttt{booktabs} package.}
\setlength{\tabcolsep}{0.34in}
\begin{tabular}{ l| c| r| c| c}
\toprule
Number & Our rating & Month & Days & Rating\\
(left) & (center) & (right) & (number) & (stars)\\
\midrule
1 & Colder & January & 31 & **\\
2 & Okay & February & 28 & ***\\
3 & Good & March & 31 & *****\\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\label{tab23}
\end{table}
\italk{It can be seen that the table column separation (\vb{tabcolsep}) value of 0.34in was applied on both sides of the text in each column. The vertical spaces at the start (left) and end (right) are not working well with the \vb{l} and \vb{r} specifications for the 1st and 3rd columns set in the \vb{tabular} environment. Had all columns been centered, then this would have worked.}
\italk{To address and suppress these spaces, the control sequence \vb{@\{\ldots\}} can be used. When the spaces were removed, the table width will reduce and should be increased (1.1in used) accordingly. Thus, with the following code, the table (\cref{tab24}) was created, where columns align per our expectations.
}
{\singlespacing
\begin{verbatim}
\setlength{\tabcolsep}{0.41in}
\begin{tabular}{ @{ }l| c| r| c| c@{ }}
\end{verbatim}
}
\begin{table}[ht!]
\centering
\caption{Professional looking full-width table using \cmd{tabcolsep}, \texttt{@\{\ldots\}}, and \texttt{booktabs} package.}
\setlength{\tabcolsep}{0.41in}
\begin{tabular}{ @{ }l| c| r| c| c@{ }}
\toprule
Number & Our rating & Month & Days & Rating\\
(left) & (center) & (right) & (number) & (stars)\\
\midrule
1 & Colder & January & 31 & **\\
2 & Okay & February & 28 & ***\\
3 & Good & March & 31 & *****\\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\label{tab24}
\end{table}
\italk{This table (\cref{tab24}), of course without the vertical lines (|), can be used in NDSU disquisition. The issue of such vertical space management will be prevalent only with fewer columns.}
%-------------------------------------------
\subsection{Automatic Method --- Using \texttt{tblr} Environment - Equal Widths}
\italk{The automatic method using the \vb{tblr} environment replacing the \vb{tabular} makes it simple and avoids the guesswork in fixing the table width. The following code (rest of the code is the same as Table~2.2, page: \pageref{tabcode22}) that reproduces the \cref{tab24} and the generated output (\cref{tab25}) are:}
{\singlespacing
\begin{verbatim}
. . . .
\begin{tblr}{X| X[c]| X[r]| X[c]| X[r]} % tabular replaced by tblr
. . . .
\end{tblr} % tabular replaced by tblr
. . . .
\end{verbatim}
}
\begin{table}[h!]
\centering
\caption{Professional looking automatic full-width table using \texttt{tblr} environment and \texttt{booktabs} package.}

2 & Okay & February & 28 & ***\\
3 & Good & March & 31 & *****\\
\bottomrule
\end{tblr}
\label{tab25}
\end{table}
\italk{From the code, it can be seen that the full-width table can be easily made using the \vb{tblr} environment. The \vb{X} column specifier allots column widths automatically so that the table spans the full-width. The other parameter enclosed by square brackets extends the functionality of the \vb{X} column. Thus, \vb{X[c]} and \vb{X[r]} specify centering and right-justification of the column content, while left-justification is the default.}
\italk{Now the \Cref{tab25} is revised as \Cref{tab26} so that it is appropriate for the thesis or paper. Row spacing of the automatic full-width table \tt{tblr} is adjusted by \cmd{SetTblrInner\{rowsep = xxx\}}}

\section{Landscape Tables}
\italk{When more columns need to be accommodated in tables that cannot be handled in the regular orientation, with available text width of about \qty{6.5}{in}, the landscape orientation can utilize the text height of \qty{8.75}{in} for the table contents. If even more columns have to be packed, then the use of \cmd{resizebox} command can scale down the table to the required size, and this can be used in regular and landscape modes.}
\italk{Landscape tables were usually set on a separate page using \vb{[p]} placement specifier. With the \vb{pdflscape}\cptp package that provides the \vb{landscape} environment for the table creation, the page is also rotated for direct viewing of the table, but prints correctly. An example of a landscape table is shown in \Cref{tab212}. More information about this table is available in the table caption and footnote. The source code of this table can be referred to for details.

\section{Long Tables}
\italk{In the disquisition, sometimes it is necessary to present data and results that go beyond a single page. In such situations, long tables should be used, and the package developed for this purpose and included in the class was \vb{longtable}\cptp. The \vb{longtable} environment is used. For automatic full-width long tables, the \vb{tabularray}'s \vb{longtblr} environment is used.}
\italk{The long tables have more components than regular tables (\cref{longtab1}). Long tables contain, in general, a main title, running title, running table head, running footnote, and table final footnote\footnote{Final elaborate longtable footnote needs special consideration. The \cmd{multicolumn\{\}} command spanning all columns and `p' format for longer text can be used---as shown in this example. Also, note that the \texttt{threeparttable} package is not compatible with \texttt{longtable}}. Users are urged to refer to the documentation of \vb{longtable} and the source code for more details, as there are several aspects involved in long table creation. Referring to the long tables can be done by defining the \texttt{label} right inside the \texttt{longtable} environment and referring to it in the usual way (\cref{longtab1} and \Cref{longtab1}).}

\subsection{Longtable 2: Automatic Full-Width Long Table Using \texttt{xltabular} package}
\italk{With long tables that have more columns, it will always be convenient to have the automatic full-width rather than manually adjusting the column width or column separation. While \texttt{tblr} is the best option with single-page tables, the long table version of \texttt{longtblr} was found to have some issues with other setup commands---whereby the caption is not working (not displayed and appears in LOT). However, the \texttt{longtblr} can be used for other non-numbered tabular data (as presented later), since it is simpler to work with.}
\italk{The modern and recommended solution is to use the \texttt{xltabular}\cptp package. This package is versatile and will do the following:
\begin{itemize}
\item Production of table caption and LOT entry
\item Supports all types of columns (l, c, r, p, and X)
\item Running head, foot, and final foot can be activated or suppressed---through \\ \cmd{multicolumn} command
\item X column makes the automatic width adjustment
\item The command $>$\{\cmd{raggedright}\cmd{arraybackslash}\}p\{\ldots\} makes raggedright $\quad\quad$ columns (otherwise justified)
\item No adjustment of the counter is required
\item The whole table width can be adjusted (sometimes necessary when the final column has citations)---comes handy with landscape environment (1.346 \cmd{textwidth}; See: \Cref{tab:xltabularls})
\item Can be used for all practical long table situations---just follow the subsequent elaborate example shown in \Cref{tab:xltabular}.
\end{itemize}

As any dedicated reader can clearly see, the Ideal of practical reason is a representation of, as far as I know, the things in themselves; as I have shown elsewhere, the phenomena should only be used as a canon for our understanding. The paralogisms of practical reason are what first give rise to the architectonic of practical reason.

\italk{Since it is an automatic full-width (specified width and one X column), no centering is necessary. Row spacing by \texttt{spacing} command (others are ineffective with the class). The necessary codes (caption, footnote, column specifications, etc.) will be as usual (see previous examples). Enclosing the group environment is necessary.

\subsection{Longtable 10: Simple Long Data Table Using \texttt{tabbing} Environment}\label{lttab}
\italk{The \vb{tabbing} environment offers the simplest way of developing a data table (always left-justified; no TOC entries) and \vb{tabbing} entries automatically flow through pages (longtable). The tabs can be defined according to requirements. The tab stops can be adjusted to move the entire table or column widths manually. As the tabbing environment is not a table, it will not affect the numbering of the tables. }

\section{Figures in the Chapters}
\italk{As before, the class documentation should be read first (Sec. 9.2). Let us have some figures. Refer to our first figure (\cref{fig1}) and second (\cref{fig2}). This figure file (``\texttt{frog.jpg}'') is also included in the class folder, and if necessary can be replaced by any other dummy figures from the \texttt{mwe} package (Documentation Sec. 7). The following figure was coded using the regular figure environment and other commands.}
\begin{figure}[H]
\captionsetup{singlelinecheck=true}
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.4\textwidth]{frog.jpg}
\caption{\label{fig:frog}This frog figure short caption is centered - NDSU.}
\label{fig1}
\end{figure}
%-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
\section{Shortcut Commands for Figures in Class}
%-------------------------------------------
\subsection{Figure Shortcut Command --- 5 Arguments}
\italk{The same image using the \texttt{myfig} command (which is a shortcut defined to easily input the [caption alignment], figure placement, size, figure, caption, and label in one command). The following code shows how this is used and the figure displayed:}
{\singlespacing
\begin{verbatim}
\myfig{H}{0.4}{frog.jpg}{Figure short caption is centered.
Use of myfig command.}{fig2}
\end{verbatim}
}
\myfig{H}{0.4}{frog.jpg}{Figure short caption is centered.
Use of \cmd{myfig\{\}} command.}{fig2}
\italk{When required, by issuing the command \cmd{captionsetup\{singlelinecheck=true\}} before the figure or inside the figure environment, will center the shorter caption (as did with \cref{fig1}), and left-justify the longer captions. This was the default behavior of the class and reset by making the \texttt{singlelinecheck=false}, where the caption will always be left-justified, irrespective of the length.}
%-------------------------------------------
\subsection{Figure Shortcut Command --- 1 Optional + 5 Arguments}
\myfig{H}{0.4}{frog.jpg}{Figure with a long caption where it is left-justified. More text text text text text text text text used to make the title long.}{fig3}
\italk{\Cref{fig3} with a long title makes the caption left-justified automatically. It can be seen that the caption is too close to the bottom of the image, which may be good in some cases where already some white space/margin was present in the original figure. To address this, the optional vertical caption placement should be used. In \Cref{fig4}, the caption was given a +ve vertical space [2ex] to move the caption down, and can be moved up using -ve values. The code that developed this figure (\cref{fig4}) with the optional argument is shown below.
}
{\singlespacing
\begin{verbatim}
\myfig[2ex]{H}{0.4}{frog.jpg}{Figure with long caption where it is
left-justified. More text text text text text text text text is used to
make the title long. Also, the 6th optional caption placement
was used in the \cmd{myfig[optional]\{\}} command.}{fig4}
\end{verbatim}
}
\myfig[2ex]{H}{0.4}{frog.jpg}{Caption this frog was uploaded via the file-tree menu - a long title long title long title long title long title long title long title long title long title long title.}{fig4}
%-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
\section{Landscape Figures}
\italk{Landscape figures can be handled using the \cmd{myfigls\{\}} command (which is a shortcut for landscape figures similar to regular figures (1+5 arguments)). Usually, the placement specifier `p' is used to vertically center the figure and caption. The following code that produced \Cref{fig5} shows how this is used:}
\vspace{-4ex}
{\singlespace
\begin{verbatim}
\myfigls[5mm]{p}{0.6}{frog.jpg}{Landscape figure with long long long long long
long long long long long long long long long long caption and vertical caption
placement using 5mm.}{fig5}
\end{verbatim}
}
\italk{\hl{Important note:}} \textcolor{magenta}{\bfseries While printing the landscape pages (containing tables and figures) the settings should be double-checked. Adobe Reader was known to print landscape pages in the correct format. Mac Preview was observed not to give the correct output (distortion observed) at the time of this writing.}

\section{Long Caption for Figures}
The figure caption input in the source code will reflect on LOF as the default behavior. Figure captions running up to 8 to 10 lines in the LOF should be okay---and this depends on personal taste. However, figures with long captions in published technical work are not uncommon. One can come across them frequently in journal articles---where there is a necessity to present details of the figure or its components, which extends the caption length, to make them standalone. Another instance of a long figure caption is the presentation of a combined figure with several subfigures with identification labels. Such combined figures usually have a long caption that includes an overall caption and description of the subfigures, along with labels and sometimes source citations.
As such, figures with long captions can be coded as usual, including the use of the developed figure shortcuts. Despite the personal preference for the length of the figure caption, a couple of technical coding issues will be encountered when using the usual method. These include (i) overflow of captions beyond the bottom margin (or) non-wrapping into the next page, and (ii) awkward-looking LOF again with an overflow problem (or) long captions moved to the next page with a lot of white space. The issue is similar to tables that are longer, hence the development of ``\texttt{longtable}'' handling packages (tables that wrap across pages). Therefore, the solution (see \texttt{*.tex} source and the example \cref{figlongcaption}) to handle the long caption is:
\begin{itemize}
\item Use regular \texttt{figure} environment --- shortcut not available
\item Input the optional argument [\ldots] of the \texttt{caption} command, the portion of the caption that will appear in the LOF
\end{itemize}
\begin{figure}[p]% Hht - can be used

(a) Here, in a new line, a long description about the figure.}
\label{figlongcaption}
\end{figure}
\begin{itemize}
\item Split the long caption into 2 parts so that the 1st part runs to the end of the page (manual adjustment may be required) that carries the long caption after the figure, and the 2nd part is coded subsequently as a separate caption
\item Code the caption 1st part as regular argument of \texttt{caption\{\ldots\}} input --- the optional argument portion should be repeated for continuity
\item Label and end the initial regular figure environment with the figure
\item If required, the spacing below the caption can be adjusted using \\\texttt{\textbackslash setlength\textbackslash belowcaptionskip\{value\}} command
\item Code the long caption 2nd part in a blank \texttt{figure} environment (no figure or label used) as regular argument using * version of caption as \texttt{\textbackslash caption*\{\ldots\}} --- this will only create the caption on the next page without figure and seen as the continuation of the 1st part caption and will not appear in the LOF (effect of * version)
\item If needed, the process is continued for an even longer caption (very rare)
\item The abbreviated caption should make sense in the LOF --- so work on the wording
\end{itemize}

\section{Subfigures with Automated Numbering}
\italk{This multiple subfigures uses \texttt{subfig} package. The main figure caption can be referenced as \Cref{fig6} and in parentheses (\cref{fig6}). Also, the subfigures can be referenced (\cref{fig6:1a,fig6:1c,fig6:1d,fig6:1f}). The sub-caption numbering is ``alphabetic'' by default and will be automatically generated. The sizes of the sub-figures can be individually altered. Also, the number of images that occupy a single row can be readily coded with commands (refer to source code), such as \cmd{subfloat\{\ldots\}}, \cmd{hspace\{\ldots\}}, and newline (\textbackslash\textbackslash).}

\section{Unnumbered Subfigures}
\italk{If the optional argument of \cmd{subfloat[\ldots]\{\ldots\}} command is dropped, the subfigures will be arranged without their sub-captions (\cref{fig6a}). This may be required in certain situations. It is also possible to change the size and spacing of individual subfigures as well as insert the sub-caption again for any of the sub-floats. Note in \Cref{fig6a} that the subfigures are vertically arranged in a compact manner as the space taken by the sub-captions is eliminated. However, if required, this vertical space can be adjusted by the usual \cmd{vspace} or \textbackslash\textbackslash [optional spacing] commands.

\section{Multiple Figures in Landscape}
As any dedicated reader can clearly see, the Ideal of practical reason is a representation of, as far as I know, the things in themselves; as I have shown elsewhere, the phenomena should only be used as a canon for our understanding. The paralogisms of practical reason are what first give rise to the architectonic of practical reason. As will easily be shown in the next section, reason would thereby be made to contradict, in view of these considerations, the Ideal of practical reason, yet the manifold depends on the phenomena.

\mypaperheading{Schemes in thesis/dissertation}
{Schemes are floats and have to be controlled by float specifiers}
%--------------------------------------------------------------
\subsection{Figures and Schemes --- General Information}\label{figs}
\italk{The \textbf{figures} are used to represent pictures, photographs, drawings, maps, illustrations of samples, fields, instruments, structures, methods; graphs or plots of measurements, results; or anything graphically depicted to convey the thoughts or data. However, \textbf{schemes} should be used to specifically represent systematic plans for implementing an idea or concept, usually used to depict a process flow and the steps involved, and often involve ``arrows'' connecting one step to the next. Examples of schemes are chemical process diagrams, sets of chemical reaction pathways, flowcharts (process and computer algorithms), electrical circuits, block diagrams connected by arrows, and so on. In any thesis or paper, schemes always appear; however, in a thesis, it can be shown as a separate set with a list of schemes (LOSH), and in papers, they are coded as figures.}
\italk{The schemes are coded using ``\texttt{scheme}'' environment similar to`` \texttt{figure}'' environments both in long (using: \cmd{includegraphics}\{\ldots\}, \cmd{centering}, \cmd{resize}, \cmd{caption}, and \cmd{label}) and defined shortcut forms. By default, the schemes are labeled as Schematic in their caption. Schemes can be cross-referenced using \cmd{cref} or \cmd{Cref} commands as usual.}
%--------------------------------------------------------------
\section{Shortcuts for Schemes with Direct and Optional Arguments}
\italk{Shortcuts similar to figures, with 1 [optional] argument + 5 \{arguments\}, were developed for the schemes. The arguments are: (1) [optional] vertical placement of the caption (moving it up and down with respect to the bottom of the figure, especially for images with excessive or too less whitespace), (2) placement, (3) size factor, (4) input file, (5) caption, and (6) label were defined to produce figures (regular and landscape). These commands coded for schemes are: \cmd{mysch\{\ldots\}}, \cmd{mysch[\ldots]\{\ldots\}}, \cmd{myschls\{\ldots\}}, and \cmd{myschls[\ldots]\{\ldots\}}.}
\italk{\emph{Note}: For simplicity, appendix schemes are not supported by the class (see \cref{appsch}). However, such schematics can be coded as ``appendix figures.'' The following are examples of figure shortcuts for regular and landscape schemes without and with the optional argument.}
\begin{flushleft}
\hspace{-0.2cm}
\begin{minipage}{0ex}
\begin{verbatim}
\mysch{ht}{0.7}{image1.jpg}{Caption for this regular figure}{fig:1}
\mysch[1.5ex]{ht}{0.7}{image1o.jpg}{Figure caption with placement
option}{fig:1o}
\myschls{p}{1.32}{image2.pdf}{Caption for this landscape figure}{fig:2ls}
\myschls[2ex]{p}{1.31}{image3.pdf}{Landscape figure caption with
placement option}{fig:3ls}
\end{verbatim}
\end{minipage}
\end{flushleft}
%------------------------
\italk{These shortcuts (and regular float environments as well) are automatically included in LOSH that appear after the TOC. Sometimes, excessive spaces were observed above and below the figures and tables (floating elements) with respect to the text around. The use of vertical spacing (+ve or -ve; e.g., \cmd{vspace\{4pt\}} and \cmd{vspace\{-6pt\}}) around the floating elements can help in the adjustment of their placements. The vertical spacing commands can be issued before and after these environments (as required) to fix the spacing. }
%-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
\section{Regular Schemes in Chapters}
\italk{A schematic file (``\texttt{LampFlowchart.pdf}'') is included in the class folders for the demonstration. Any other user schematics or other dummy figures from the \texttt{mwe} package (Documentation Sec. 7.3) can also be used.}

\section{Clever Way of Referencing Labels Using \texttt{cleveref} Package}
\italk{Referring items automatically is a common activity in \LaTeX. Although there are basic commands available to refer (e.g., \cmd{ref}), which produces only the ``number'' of the item referred and we have to supply the context type (table, figure, equation, section, page, etc.), the use of \texttt{cleveref} package is an efficient way to do achieve this task.

\section{Citing References Through \texttt{natbib} Package}
\italk{For bibliography management in \LaTeX\ \texttt{natbib} package is used by several journals \citep{daly2010natural}. This package is very stable and widely used. The commands like \cmd{citep\{\ldots\}} citation in parentheses and \cmd{citet\{\ldots\}} citation in running text are quite useful in particular. The compatible styles with \texttt{natbib} and NDSU class are: \texttt{abbrvnat, agsm, agu, apalike, apalike2, authordate1, authordate3, cell, chicago, chicagoa, dcu, dinat, IEEEtran (family; numerical styles), kluwer, plainnat, rusnat, unsrtnat}, and more may be added. \url{https://ctan.mirrors.hoobly.com/macros/latex/contrib/natbib/natbib.pdf} Once correct citation commands are issued, a.k.a ``cite while you write'', the REFERENCE section with all listings will be generated. More information on the package can be obtained from the Documentation: \textcolor{magenta}{\url{https://ctan.mirrors.hoobly.com/macros/latex/contrib/natbib/natbib.pdf}} and Reference Sheet: \!\!\textcolor{magenta}{\url{https://ctan.mirrors.hoobly.com/macros/latex/contrib/natbib/natnotes.pdf}}

\textit{The \texttt{natbib} package is a reimplementation of the \LaTeX\ \cmd{cite} command, to work with both author-year and numerical citations. The \texttt{natbib} package supports not only the various author-year bibliography styles, but also those for standard numerical citations. In fact, it can also produce numerical citations even with an author-year bibliographic style, something that permits easy switching between the two citation modes.}
\hfill --- Patrick W. Daly (2010)
\end{quote}
\italk{Now the cite commands are in action. The in-text citation will be generated automatically based on the number of authors and year, and the listing on the next page will be an unnumbered chapter with ``apalike'' reference styles shown (NDSU recommended list). The reference bib file is stored in the same folder, and that will be the common database (which can grow by the addition of reference entries), but the use of different style files (*.bst) automatically generates the listing based on their style. Any other style files, for example, supplied by journals, can also be used, but should be present in the same folder, and the natbib package used in this document (line: 7) may be commented.}

Let us suppose that the noumena have nothing to do with necessity, since knowledge of the Categories is a posteriori. Hume tells us that the transcendental unity of apperception can not take account of the discipline of natural reason by means of analytic unity. As is proven in the ontological manuals, it is obvious that the transcendental unity of apperception proves the validity of the Antinomies; what we have alone been able to show is our understanding. Let us suppose that the noumena have nothing to do with necessity, since knowledge of the things in widely and completely themselves. \italk{Now, \cmd{myeqn\{\ldots\}} shortcut:}
\myeqn{\text{Parameter} = ax^2 + bx + c \label{eq21}}

\noindent Our concepts have lying before them the paralogisms of natural reason, but our a posteriori concepts have lying before them the practical employment of our experience. Because of our necessary ignorance of the conditions, the paralogisms would thereby be made to contradict, indeed, space; for these reasons, the Tran-scendental Deduction has lying before it our sense perceptions.

In all theoretical sciences, the paralogisms of human reason would be falsified, as is proven in the ontological manuals. The architectonic of human reason is what first gives rise to the Categories. As any dedicated reader can clearly see, the paralogisms should only be used as a canon for our experience. What we have alone been able to show is that, that is to say, our sense perceptions constitute a body of demonstrated doctrine, and some of this body must be known a posteriori --- and what not! \italk{Now, \cmd{myalign\{\ldots\}} shortcut:}.

\section{Spacing Adjustment Around Non-textual Elements}
\textcolor{magenta}{Reproduced from the class documentation for ready reference.} \italk{Usually, the spacing around the non-textual elements produced by \LaTeX\ will be good and based on typography principles. The environments that create these elements (e.g., tables, figures, equations) automatically supply an additional space to set the elements apart from the regular text, and this is the expected and correct behavior. However, sometimes additional space will appear above or below these elements, which may be the result of fitting the elements with respect to others in the whole chapter. However, the spacing around the non-textual elements can be altered by one or any combination of the following to produce a consistent spacing around the non-textual elements:}
\begin{itemize}
\item
\italk{The blank line coded, usually left between paragraphs, might create additional space before the element (e.g., \texttt{equation}, \texttt{align}), and that can be removed to reduce the space above the element.}
\item
\italk{Proper use of vertical spacing \cmd{vspace\{\ldots\}} command with negative spacing arguments (e.g., \cmd{vspace\{-3ex\}}) can able to correct the blank space above the element. This can also be used when a blank line was issued to separate the regular text from the element. Positive vertical space can also be issued as needed.}
\item
\italk{When a set of equations was coded (e.g., \texttt{align}, \texttt{eqnarray}), it will be treated as a block and will not break and flow through multiple pages, and will get pushed to the next page. This will create large gaps and can be broken into two or more subsets of equations to fit the page by repeating the environments.}
\item
\italk{The actual space around the equations (displayed items) is controlled by the \\ \cmd{abovedisplayskip[=] glue} and \cmd{belowdisplayskip[=] glue}.
The \texttt{glue} is called a ``rubber'' length, stating a basic length with an allowed play on both positive and negative sides. The default value for these commands was ``\texttt{12pt plus 3pt minus 9pt}'', and is also valid to use the basic length directly as:}
\cmd{abovedisplayskip=-12pt}
\italk{Another way for issuing the command is using the basic \cmd{setlength} as \\ \cmd{setlength\{}\cmd{abovedisplayskip\}\{-12pt\}}. To have the regular behavior subsequently, the default should be restored by reissuing the commands using the default values.}
\item
\italk{In figures, the space above the caption (the space between the bottom of the image and the top of the caption) can be controlled by using the optional argument of the \texttt{myfig, myfigls, myfigap} and \texttt{myfigapls} commands. This optional argument was specifically developed to address this caption placement issue. This may be required only for necessary adjustments, as the default (without option) will work well in most cases.}
\end{itemize}
%-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
\section{Annotation Commands}
\italk{Using the defined highlight, new text, deleted text, replaced text, and notes commands, the annotation features can be used by the student and the advisor. All the annotations should be commented (using \%) before submission. The commands (\textcolor{magenta}{again reproduced}) are:}
\textbackslash\texttt{hl\{Highlight\}} gives: \hl{Highlight}. This will be regular text.
\textbackslash\texttt{nt\{Test new text.\}} gives: \nt{Test new text.} This will be regular text.
\textbackslash\texttt{dt\{Deleted text.\}} gives: \dt{Deleted text.} This will be regular text.
\textbackslash\texttt{rt\{The text to be deleted\}\{Which will be replaced by this!\}} gives: \rt{The text to be deleted}{Which will be replaced by this!} This will be regular text again.
\vspace{1.5ex}
While using the above annotation commands, except for \cmd{nt\{\ldots\}}, enclosing a cited reference commands (\cmd{citep\{\ldots\}} or \cmd{citet\{\ldots\}}) use \cmd{mbox
\{\ldots\}} around the cited references. For example, \cmd{dt\{\ldots text\ldots \cmd{mbox\{\cmd{citep\{daly2010natural\}}\}} \ldots text\ldots\}}
gives: \dt{\ldots text\ldots \mbox{\citep{daly2010natural}} \ldots text \ldots}
\vspace{1.5ex}
\textbackslash\texttt{notes\{To Do notes - for interactive communication!\}} (also the shortcut \cmd{td\{\ldots\}}) gives: \notes{To Do notes - for interactive communication!}

\mysectop
\section{Handling URLs}
\italk{The URL typesetting in some cases will create an issue. The URLs sometimes flow into the right margin limits and will not break like normal text. As URLs carry the function of pointing to web resources, breaking them with the usual ``hyphen,'' which is an additional character, will interfere with their pointing function.}
\italk{The typical \cmd{url\{\ldots\}} command works most of the time; however, it fails to break the URL flowing into the right margin. This can be visualized with a ``draft'' option in the very first \cmd{documentclass[draft]\{\ldots\}} command. Making additional breaking ``after'' some characters will help the process of breaking the URL, following the \texttt{url}\cptp package documentation. The command used is \cmd{UrlBreaks} and \cmd{do}. The whole set of alphabets (lower- and upper-case) and a few special symbols were coded in the class to break the URLs.}
\italk{The following URL command:}
\vspace{-2ex}
\begin{verbatim}
\url{https://www.pearson.com/us/higher-education/program/Lamport-La-Te-X-A-
Document-Preparation-System-2nd-Edition/PGM159713.html}
\end{verbatim}
\noindent \italk{produces a hyperlink (shown in magenta subsequently) that points $\Rightarrow$ }\textcolor{magenta}{\url{https://www.pearson.com/us/higher-education/program/Lamport-La-Te-X-A-Document-Preparation-System-2nd-Edition/PGM159713.html}} \italk{to the webpage. Also, notice how the URL was correctly broken to fit the margin, and hovering on the URL will show the complete working URL when clicked, which will take the user to the webpage.}
\italk{In the bibliography files the URLs are included as \cmd{url\{\ldots\}} command in ``article'' or ``book'' or other compatible items as a ``note'' entry. Usually, this will be used for pointing \texttt{doi} or \texttt{www} resources. Refer to the \texttt{bib} file of this document for examples. }
%-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
\mysectop
\section{Theorems Environment}
\italk{In mathematical research documents, theorems and proofs are among the most common elements, but others, such as lemmas, propositions, axioms, corollaries, conjectures, definitions, remarks, and cases, are also used. The best way to typeset them is to use the American Mathematical Society (AMS) \textcolor{magenta}{asmthm} package \citep{amsthm2017}, which is the modern method and provides a lot of customization.}
\italk{It is natural to handle theorem elements as \LaTeX environments; however, because of several user-specific formats (e.g., numbering and variety of elements) that need to be specified, the document class does not provide predefined environments. The package documentation may be referred to define the necessary elements using \cmd{newtheorem} command, similar to \cmd{newenvironment} command, to suit the user's needs.}
\italk{The following theorem and other elements were created after defining the environment shown subsequently in the preamble:}
\begin{verbatim}
\newtheorem{theorem}{Theorem}[section]
\newtheorem{corollary}{Corollary}[theorem]
\newtheorem{lemma}{Lemma}[corollary]
\end{verbatim}
\vspace{-0.5in}
\italk{
\begin{theorem}
Let \(f(x)\) be our function that will do wonders, and this function is enough to \emph{``end the world hunger''} --- but will it? Note the use of \cmd{emph\{\ldots\}} that made the world hunger upright!
\end{theorem}
\begin{theorem}[Pythagorus theorem]
\label{pytha}
This is that famous theorem we all studied in middle school, which we still remember and apply in our daily lives
\vspace{6ex}
\[ a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \qquad \emph{(or)} \qquad c = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} \]
\end{theorem}
\vspace{-3ex}
\noindent where $a$ and $b$ are the lengths of the legs of the right triangle and $c$ is the hypotenuse.
The next corollary is a consequence of \cref{pytha} and is also useful. The use of \cmd{cref} correctly inserted the item ``theorem.''
\begin{corollary}
It is a right rectangle whose sides measure \qty{3}{m}, \qty{4}{m}, and \qty{5}{m}.
\label{coro}
\end{corollary}
Lemma usually follows a corollary --- and there ends my knowledge of math.
\begin{lemma}
Given two line segments whose lengths are $p$ and $q$, we can add them and get a new length $r$ as \(r=p+q\).
\label{lem}
\end{lemma}
Theorems, corollaries, lemmas, and other elements can be referenced after defining the labels in an appropriate environment, such as \cref{pytha}, \cref{coro}, \cref{lem} when a label is assigned. Again, \cmd{cref} commands produced the correct references and categories.

\section{Fun Notes}
\italk{Some unexpected behavior, but logical behavior we will come across while using \LaTeX. And some of those are described here (``itemize'' environment is used to produce the bulleted list).}
\begin{itemize}

And this applies to other arguments as well, and is because the package was coded with this requirement.}
\item
\italk{Notice the no space before the word shown next ``environment''} \LaTeX environments \italk{with the code [\cmd{LaTeX environments}]. Using the spacing command ``\cmd{\:}'' (backslash-and-space) as [\cmd{LaTeX\textbackslash\:environments}] will create the enough space as} \LaTeX\ environments\italk{.}
\item
\italk{With some settings and fonts, the period after letters such as F, O, T, P, V, W, and Y might go left into the letters, and such encroachment can be rectified by inserting ``\cmd{@}'' between the letter and period as:} {\LARGE{\verb|F\@.|}}
\italk{The correct version should be like this:} {\LARGE F\@., O\@., T\@., P\@.; V\@.; W\@.;} \italk{and} {\LARGE Y\@.}

\section{Normal Section}
The reader should be careful to observe that the objects in space and time are the clue to the discovery of, certainly, our a priori knowledge, by means of analytic unity. Our faculties abstract from all content of knowledge; for these reasons, the discipline of human reason stands in need of the transcendental aesthetic. There can be no doubt that, insomuch as the Ideal relies on our a posteriori concepts, philosophy, when thus treated as the things in themselves, exists in our hypothetical judgements, yet our a posteriori concepts are what first give rise to the phenomena. Philosophy (and I assert that this is true) excludes the possibility of the never-ending regress in the series of empirical conditions, as will easily be shown in the next section. Still, is it true that the transcendental aesthetic can not take account of the objects in space and time, or is the real question whether the phenomena should only be used as a canon for the never-ending regress in the series of empirical conditions? By means of analytic unity, the Transcendental Deduction, still, is the mere result of the power of the Transcendental Deduction, a blind but indispensable function of the soul, but our faculties are abstracted from all content of a posteriori knowledge.

\section{Appendix Landscape Table}
\italk{Sometimes it is necessary to code larger tables in the appendix using the landscape mode. These are created using the usual \texttt{appendixtable} environment but enclosed inside \texttt{landscape} environment---as usually done. Shown below is an example of the landscape table in regular font (Table~\ref{apbtab:ls}). Also, shown is an even larger table where the whole table is scaled down to accommodate the content within the margins through the table \cmd{resizebox} command (Table~\ref{apbtab:lsmore}). Obviously, the font size can also be reduced to accommodate the contents. }

{\color{blue} The Table~\ref{tab:apb6} is longer and will not fit in the space below this Table~\ref{tab:apb5}. Therefore, it is floated to the next page. As the table cannot fit, there is no option but to leave the space blank, which is okay and the logical thing to do. Also, note that \texttt{cref, Cref} commands will not work in the appendix (I guess, this was mentioned earlier elsewhere). \label{ttab}
The method that makes the table top-aligned is the use of \texttt{newpage} command and the float placement option of \texttt{[h]} or \texttt{[h!]}---other options will not produce this required effect. However, the float placement option \texttt{[H]} will make the top-alignment (with or without \texttt{newpage} command) but also make the rows spread out like the regular text with double-line spacing---this means \texttt{H} is not an option. }

\section{Appendix --- Long Table}
\italk{We know well that long tables are a little involved and tricky, and then in the appendix, need manual override for proper output. The regular (in chapters) \vb{longtable}, \vb{xltabular}, and \vb{longtbrl} environments are used to code the long tables, and their captions, and LOAT entries will appear correctly with \vb{table} environment. However, the existing appendix \vb{appendixtable} environment will not support the \vb{longtable}, \vb{xltabular}, and \vb{longtbrl} environments, even though these will output table contents, the caption table numbering, and LOAT will not appear correctly. Therefore, a simpler fix followed includes (1) a dummy \vb{appendixtable} with only a caption for the long table with negative \vb{vspace} and optional TOC entry \cmd{caption}[\ldots] with repeated caption text without negative \vb{vspace}, and immediately followed by (2) the long table code without caption.}
\italk{The shortcut (\cmd{mytabapcap} with 1 optional [for vertical adjustment; lifting the table up; defaulty unit = $-8$ex] + 2 mandatory arguments \{Long table main caption\} and \{label\}) can be conveniently used to create the caption. This code will take care of the correct numbering, and the regular caption in the long table should be suppressed. Examples of the appendix long tables are shown in Table~\ref{aplongtab1}, Table~\ref{aplongtab2}, and Table~\ref{aplongtab3}.}
\italk{As shown before (Sec.~\ref{lttab}), for simple long data, the \cmd{tabbing} environment can be utilized. These methods of the appendix long table can be coded with or without a caption. These advanced tables should be referenced using the regular \cmd{ref}\{\ldots\} commands (e.g., Table~\ref{aplongtab1} and Table~\ref{aplongtab2}).}
\textcolor{magenta}{In summary, we have \cmd{mytabapcap} with \vb{longtable}, \vb{xltabular}, and \vb{longtbrl} environments to code appendix long tables. Recall for regular chapters, we use \vb{longtable} or \vb{xltabular}, otherwise the workaround combination of \cmd{mytabcap} and \vb{longtbrl}.}

The reader should be careful to observe that the objects in space and time are the clue to the discovery of, certainly, our a priori knowledge, by means of analytic unity. Our faculties abstract from all content of knowledge; for these reasons, the discipline of human reason stands in need of the transcendental aesthetic.

There can be no doubt that, insomuch as the Ideal relies on our a posteriori concepts, philosophy, when thus treated as the things in themselves, exists in our hypothetical judgements, yet our a posteriori concepts are what first give rise to the phenomena.

{\hl{Important note:}
\textcolor{magenta}{It should be noted that the final appendix should contain the appendix tables and figures to generate the List of Appendix Tables and List of Appendix Figures --- based on the NDSU thesis class. Otherwise, these items will not be created.}

\textcolor{magenta}{This issue is not present with regular chapters.}
\italk{However, now we have the new \cmd{closeappendices} command to ensure the list of appendix tables and figures. This has to be given at the end of the last appendix.}
