This document tabulates the state of the slides in lecture_*/slides/<topic>/ based on

  1. compilation checks (does it compile,and if not, is there a salient error message?) and
  2. (optionally and rarely) comparison with presumably “known good” versions of the slides located in lecture_*/slides-pdf/

Tables are organized by lecture (first level) and lecture topics corresponding to folders in slides/<topic> (second level), with a table per topic. Topics ignore certain folders like attic and all.

  • Slide: The <slide-name> with a link to the compiled .tex file (if it compiles).
  • Compiles?: Whether the .tex file compiles without error using latexmk -pdf. This can depend on the availability of specific LaTeX dependencies, but assuming they are not the issue, this usually indicates syntax issues or things like \includegraphics calls using relative paths that work on Overleaf but not locally.
  • Comparison: Checking the compiled <slide-name>.tex against slides-pdf/<slide-name>.pdf using diff-pdf-visually:
    • ❌: The check failed surely, either due to differing page counts or because there is no reference PDF.
    • ❓: The check indicates differences on at least one slide, but they may be minor and need manual checking.
    • ✅: The check seems to be fine, the PDF files match.
  • Note: A comment on the previous column listing the specific reason for a failing check. Also enumerates the slide pages where differences are found, and links to a PDF containing a diff of the two files generated with diff-pdf (at a lower resolution than the originals).
