General ⇒ Fixed position for an algorithm

[ninca]

Is there a possibility to specify a fixed position for an algorithm using the packages algorithmic and algorithm?


For example I have some text and want to place the algorithm directly below this text:

Code: Select all

\begin{algorithm}
\caption{xyz} \label{xyz}
\begin{algorithmic} [1]
\STATE do something
\end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}

The algorithm should also appear right above the next paragraph which refers to the algorithm.

Is there a possibility to specify the placement 'right here' instead of floating in the code?

Since the algorithm package uses the float package, the following should be possible:

Code: Select all

\begin{algorithm}[H] % [H] = place here!
\caption{xyz} \label{xyz}
\begin{algorithmic} [1]
\STATE do something
\end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}
