General ⇒ How to continue displaying an algorithm if it is too long?

[Stefan Kottwitz]

The thing is when I was using algorithmic, there seems to be no end if and such appears. So I was wondering how to turn such thing off.

You could create your own macro which saves that work:

Code: Select all

\newcommand\myIf[2]{\If{#1}#2\EndIf}
\newcommand\myWhile[2]{\While{#1}#2\EndWhile}

Using requires braces so the end can be detected, like here:

Code: Select all

      \myWhile{$\Sigma \leq \Sigma_{\max}$
             and $i < i_{\max}$}{
        \Let{x^\prime}{x^2 - y^2 + c_x}
        \Let{y^\prime}{2xy + c_y}
        \Let{m}{x^\prime}
        \Let{y}{y^\prime}
        \Let{\Sigma}{x^2 + y^2}}
      \myIf{$i < i_{\max}$}{
        \State \Return{$i$}}
      \State\Return{0}

\usepackage[noend]{algpseudocode} seems to be another viable solution.

Ah, I see, it's not about saving source code lines but about omitting them in the output. Well, I think, a clear block end statement makes the algorithm often a bit clearer than omitting the end, having it implicit, so the reader should be aware.
