Question about \cite

Post by pixinot »

When using \cite{link1, link2, link3 etc} in my article, the output is [1,2,3], although it should be [1-3]. Can you tell me what is wrong in my code?
I use bibtex, and there is a sample of my code:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,fleqn]{cas-dc}
\usepackage[numbers]{natbib}
\bibliographystyle{elsarticle-num}
\begin{document}
\section{Introduction}
Text text text \cite{Askari2015, Song2017705, EbrahimiKhabbazi201335}.
\bibliography{cas-refs}
\end{document}

Please try to provide a Infominimal working example and mark your code as code.

The natbib package offers other options besides numbers, which are listed and described in its manual, e.g. those to compress multiple numerical citations if possible.

You need to add the "sort&compress" option to natbib.
