Workflow Details

The workflow consists of the following steps:

1. Set up Git repository: This step checks out the repository on the GitHub Actions runner.

2. Compile LaTeX document: The LaTeX document (specified as main.tex in the workflow) is compiled into a PDF using the GitHub Action for LaTeX. The resulting PDF is then saved as an artifact.

3. Upload PDF file: The compiled PDF file is uploaded as an artifact, making it accessible for further use or manual download.

Usage

LaTeX to PDF Conversion with GitHub Actions

This repository includes an automated workflow that converts a LaTeX document to a PDF using GitHub Actions. The workflow is triggered on each push to the main branch, ensuring that the PDF is always up-to-date with the latest changes to the LaTeX document.

To compile the LaTeX document and generate the PDF locally, you can follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone [repository-url]

2. cd [EssentialStatistics]
