Multicolumn (Tables) trouble












2














I am trying to get my table working for last couple of days. But I couldnt fix the problem. The way I want my table to look like is below (figure 1).



enter image description here



With my following code



begin{table}[p]

begin{tabular}{ccccccccc}

    hline

    Compound               & multicolumn{4}{c}{A}                                                                          & multicolumn{4}{c}{B}                                                                         \

end{tabular} end{table}


I am getting (figure 2):
enter image description here



I tried using tabularx and defined the size of each column. It worked until I added last long row (which is a merged form of all 9 columns). Also the the header "B" and last coulmn (figure 1) is going out of the page in figure 2.



It would be nice if someone can help me. Also, detailed explanation of the solution would be appreciated.



Thanks in advance.

    By using the l column type for the super-long word, you’ve disabled automatic line-breaking. Even if you chose a different column type, i.e., a column type that allows line breaking, how is LaTeX even supposed to decide how and where to insert line breaks in the super-long word?

  • Thanks, @Mico for your replay. I changed now a long word with a bunch of "Blah Blah"s (so latex should know where to break the line) and also changed column type from l to c. However, the problem isn't solved. Definitely, I am doing something wrong.

    The c, l, and r column types do no allow line breaking.

As far as I can tell, the "Blah Blah ..." material is only indirectly related to the preceding, table-like material. Is the "Blah Blah" material maybe some kind of legend? If this guess is correct, you'd be better off not placing it inside the tabular environment. Instead, I suggest you load the threeparttable package and place the legend in a tablenotes environment, which (thanks to the behind-the-scenes work of the threeparttable environment) will automatically be as wide as the preceding tabular environment.



In case you're curious about the name threeparttable of the package: It can handle three types of elements: The table caption (which is absent in the case of your code), the tabular-like material, and the tablenotes material. The package works, though, even if there is no caption.

since you tag your question with tabularx i suggest to use this package. beside it more nice result you will obtain by use of the booktabs package for horizontal rules:



documentclass{article}

usepackage{booktabs, tabularx}

newcolumntype{C}{>{centeringarraybackslash}X}

newcommandmcc[1]{multicolumn{2}{c}{#1}}



%---------------- show page layout. don't use in a real document!

usepackage{showframe}

    You can add width argument to your columns, like multicolumn{9}{p{linewidth}}. Perhaps multicolumn{9}{p{.7linewidth}} will do even better. Addding this to your example produces the following outputhttps://imgur.com/WcNyPXb

      Your solution has the (presumably unintended) side-effect of making the final column very wide indeed in case the combined width of the 9 columns is less than linewidth. Can you think of a way of avoiding this issue?

      since you tag your question with tabularx i suggest to use this package. beside it more nice result you will obtain by use of the booktabs package for horizontal rules:

            You can add width argument to your columns, like multicolumn{9}{p{linewidth}}. Perhaps multicolumn{9}{p{.7linewidth}} will do even better. Addding this to your example produces the following outputhttps://imgur.com/WcNyPXb

              Your solution has the (presumably unintended) side-effect of making the final column very wide indeed in case the combined width of the 9 columns is less than linewidth. Can you think of a way of avoiding this issue?

            You can add width argument to your columns, like multicolumn{9}{p{linewidth}}. Perhaps multicolumn{9}{p{.7linewidth}} will do even better. Addding this to your example produces the following outputhttps://imgur.com/WcNyPXb

              Your solution has the (presumably unintended) side-effect of making the final column very wide indeed in case the combined width of the 9 columns is less than linewidth. Can you think of a way of avoiding this issue?

            Is this a new Fibonacci Identity?

            Image
            6 1 $begingroup$ I have found the following Fibonacci Identity (and proved it). If $F_n$ denotes the nth Fibonacci Number, we have the following identity begin{equation} F_{n-r+h}F_{n+k+g+1} - F_{n-r+g}F_{n+k+h+1} = (-1)^{n+r+h+1} F_{g-h}F_{k+r+1} end{equation} where $F_1 = F_2 = 1$ , $r leq n$ , $h leq g$ , and $n, g, k in mathbb{N}$ . It is not too hard to show that this identity subsumes Cassini's Identity, Catalan's Identity, Vajda's Idenity, and d'Ocagne's identity to name a few. I have done a pretty thorough literature review, and I have not found anything like this, but I am still wondering if anyone has seen this identity before? I found this by accident after noticing some patterns in some analysis work I was doing, so if this is already known I would be curious to see w
