problem with \chapter

Post by dharmesh »

Hello all,
I am using document class "report" for my thesis documentation
for a new chapter I use \chapter{chapter name} but I get output as "1 chapter name"
I want it as:
Chapter 1
chapter name
I want this "chapter" word in my chapter title. I dont know why its supressing it automatically. Can someone help?

Since this is not the default behaviour of the »report« class, you have to show that by a minimal example [1]. It has to be reduced to only necessary code and must be compilable as provided.
