Working on a tool paper, I had the desire to share code alongside its output. With a combination of the `listings`, `caption`, and `color` packages, we can get a result that's nice looking.
|
|
|
|
The imports needed
|
|
|
|
```latex
|
|
\usepackage{color}
|
|
\usepackage{listings}
|
|
\usepackage{caption}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
I want a think topbar that labels which column is the code section and which column is the output section.
|
|
|
|
```latex
|
|
\DeclareCaptionFormat{listing}
|
|
{\colorbox[cmyk]{0.73, 0.35, 0.15,.5}
|
|
{\parbox{\textwidth}{#1#2#3}}}
|
|
\DeclareCaptionFont{white}{\color{white}}
|
|
\captionsetup[lstlisting]{
|
|
format=listing,
|
|
labelfont=white,
|
|
textfont=white,
|
|
font={bf,footnotesize}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next I define some colors that I would like to use as the theme for the code output:
|
|
|
|
```latex
|
|
\definecolor{keyblue}{rgb}{0.1, 0.1, 0.6}
|
|
\definecolor{dkgreen}{rgb}{0,0.6,0}
|
|
\definecolor{gray}{rgb}{0.5,0.5,0.5}
|
|
\definecolor{stringcol}{rgb}{0.58,0.4,0.1}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Setup for the code output
|
|
|
|
```latex
|
|
\lstset{
|
|
language=Python,
|
|
columns=flexible,
|
|
basicstyle={\small\ttfamily},
|
|
keywordstyle=\color{keyblue},
|
|
commentstyle=\color{dkgreen},
|
|
stringstyle=\color{stringcol},
|
|
breaklines=true,
|
|
breakatwhitespace=true,
|
|
tabsize=4
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then inside the document, you can use `minipage` to setup a two column layout.
|
|
|
|
```latex
|
|
% Column 1: Code
|
|
\begin{minipage}[t]{.45\textwidth}
|
|
\begin{lstlisting}[title=Code]
|
|
def factorial(n):
|
|
if n == 0:
|
|
return 1
|
|
return n * factorial(n - 1)
|
|
# Let's test it out!
|
|
print(factorial(5))
|
|
\end{lstlisting}
|
|
\end{minipage}
|
|
% Column 2: Output
|
|
\begin{minipage}[t]{.45\textwidth}
|
|
\begin{lstlisting}[title=Output]
|
|
120
|
|
\end{lstlisting}
|
|
\end{minipage}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Below is all these steps combined into a compile-able LaTex file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```latex
|
|
\documentclass{article}
|
|
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
|
|
|
|
% Imports
|
|
\usepackage{color}
|
|
\usepackage{listings}
|
|
\usepackage{caption}
|
|
|
|
% Define colors
|
|
\definecolor{keyblue}{rgb}{0.1, 0.1, 0.6}
|
|
\definecolor{dkgreen}{rgb}{0,0.6,0}
|
|
\definecolor{gray}{rgb}{0.5,0.5,0.5}
|
|
\definecolor{stringcol}{rgb}{0.58,0.4,0.1}
|
|
|
|
% Caption Setup
|
|
\DeclareCaptionFormat{listing}
|
|
{\colorbox[cmyk]{0.73, 0.35, 0.15,.5}
|
|
{\parbox{\textwidth}{#1#2#3}}}
|
|
\DeclareCaptionFont{white}{\color{white}}
|
|
\captionsetup[lstlisting]{
|
|
format=listing,
|
|
labelfont=white,
|
|
textfont=white,
|
|
font={bf,footnotesize}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|

|

|
|

|
|

|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
\begin{document}
|
|
|
