algorithmic, arbitrary names for algorithms

up vote 7 down vote favorite 1	The question is advanced version of my previous one. I need to name algorithms (package algorithmic) with arbitrary names so it appears like: Algorithm MyAlgo and \ref{...} will appear like MyAlgo. Next code is (by cmhughes) puts A in front of a number: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{algorithm} \usepackage{algpseudocode} \renewcommand{\thealgorithm}{A\arabic{algorithm}} \begin{document} \begin{algorithm} \caption{Euclid’s algorithm} \label{alg:euclid} \begin{algorithmic}[1] \Procedure{Euclid}{$a,b$}\Comment{The g.c.d. of a and b} \State $r\gets a\bmod b$ \While{$r\not=0$}\Comment{We have the answer if r is 0} \State $a\gets b$ \State $b\gets r$ \State $r\gets a\bmod b$ \EndWhile\label{euclidendwhile} \State \textbf{return} $b$\Comment{The gcd is b} \EndProcedure \end{algorithmic} \end{algorithm} Test reference: \ref{alg:euclid} \end{document} But how to do it for arbitrary algorithm name? EDIT: Maybe I was unclear in my question. What I need is assigning to algorithms arbitrary names without numbering, so that \ref{...} will appear as name of the algorithm. cross-referencing  algorithms  naming share edit flag edited Nov 17 '12 at 18:47 lockstep 114k 21 295 488 asked  Nov 15 '12 at 20:19 msh 432 2 8
	Not sure I undestand: \renewcommand{\thealgorithm}{MyAlgo\arabic{algorithm}}? –   Peter Grill Nov 15 '12 at 20:24 I don't understand it too but it works to make names like Algorithm A1 instead Algorithm 1 A1. Now I want to give arbitrary names to algorithms. –   msh  Nov 15 '12 at 20:28    add comment

Is this what you want to achieve? \documentclass{article} \usepackage{algorithm} \usepackage{algpseudocode} \newenvironment{varalgorithm}[1] {\algorithm\renewcommand{\thealgorithm}{#1}} {\endalgorithm} \begin{document} \begin{varalgorithm}{Euclid} \caption{Euclid's algorithm} \label{alg:euclid} \begin{algorithmic}[1] \Procedure{Euclid}{$a,b$}\Comment{The g.c.d. of a and b} \State $r\gets a\bmod b$ \While{$r\not=0$}\Comment{We have the answer if r is 0} \State $a\gets b$ \State $b\gets r$ \State $r\gets a\bmod b$ \EndWhile\label{euclidendwhile} \State \textbf{return} $b$\Comment{The gcd is b} \EndProcedure \end{algorithmic} \end{varalgorithm} \begin{varalgorithm}{Ten} \caption{Count to ten}\label{alg:ten} \begin{algorithmic} \State $x \gets 1$ \While{$x < 10$} \State $x \gets x + 1$ \EndWhile \end{algorithmic} \end{varalgorithm} Test reference: \ref{alg:euclid} Test reference: \ref{alg:ten} \end{document} share edit flag answered  Nov 17 '12 at 20:36 egreg 251k 20 649 1304
