Below are the instructions from the project outline. I have just one figure (saved in doc/report/graphics
), and no code. All of my deliverables are essentially in the doc/report
subdirectory. The main reference for the report, with appendix, may be found here: https://arxiv.org/abs/1705.03439.
- Click the Use this temnplate button above.
- Name your repository
yourinitials-stat547c
. - If necessary, install git on your local machine.
- Clone your repository to your local machine.
- At some point before you submit the report, add me as a collaborator.1
- Use the directory structure to keep your project organized and use the LaTeX template in the
doc/report
directory for your report. See below for more details on using the LaTeX template. - Commit and push your changes regularly. It serves as a back-up and lets me see how you progressed.
- When you are ready to submit your report, commit with the message "final project submission".
- Send me an email confirming that you have submitted your report for review and marking.
The short version: Each subdirectory has its own README file that tells you what goes in the directory.
The long(er) version:
- Use the
doc
directory to for all written portions of the project. Writing inreading_log.md
andproject_log.md
are not required, but I have found that keeping them up-to-date is helpful for research. For the purposes of the final project, keeping these up-to-date also lets me see how you progressed through the project. - Use
ref/STAT_547C.bib
to keep your biliography up-to-date, and use it as the bib-file for your report. Feel free to keep PDFs of relevant papers here;.gitignore
won't upload them to GitHub. - Use
src
for any code you develop anddat
for any data you use (including output from your code). (There may be good reasons for not keeping your code in the same repository as your report, in which case let me know and invite me as a collaborator to that repo, as well.) - Use
aux
for anything else.
- Compile
main.tex
, but make minimal edits. Most edits should be made in the compontent tex-files in thesections/
directory. header.tex
loads packages, tweaks formatting, etc. Edit as necessary, but do not change document formatting.defs.tex
defines notation, custom commands, etc. Edit freely.- Graphics go in
fig
. cleanup.sh
cleans up auxiliary files, etc., in case your directory looks cluttered. Usage is./cleanup.sh clean-dir
whereclean-dir
is a path to the directory you want cleaned up.
[1] When you give me access is entirely up to you. I will not look at your repository before your submit your report unless you ask me to (and even then I may not). ↩
