PypTeX: the Python Preprocessor for TeX
Author: Sébastien Loisel
PypTeX is the Python Preprocessor for LaTeX. It allows one to embed Python code fragments in a LaTeX template file.
Installation
pip install pyptex
- You will also need a LaTeX installation, and the default LaTeX processor is
pdflatex. - You need a Python 3 installation.
Hello, world
Put the following in example.tex:
\documentclass{article}
@{from sympy import *}
\begin{document}
$$\int x^3\,dx = @{S('integrate(x^3,x)')}+C$$
\end{document}
The command pyptex example.tex will generate example.pdf and an intermediary pure-LaTeX file example.pyptex. The resulting PDF can be found here
- The
pyptexexecutable tries to locate the Python 3 executable using/usr/bin/env python3. If this is causing you problems, trypython -u -m pyptex example.texinstead.
Slightly bigger examples
- 2d and 3d plotting tex | pdf
- Matrix inverse exercise tex | pdf
- The F19NB handout for numerical linear algebra at Heriot-Watt university is generated with PypTeX. pdf
