My problem is that I do not know how to change the numbering style

  • 0

My problem is that I do not know how to change the numbering style for algorithms. I have created an algoritm and its number is “Algorithm 1”, but I want to have “Algorithm N.1”, where N is the number of current chapter.

Let assume I have something like below

\begin{algorithm}
    \begin{algorithmic}
        \FOR{$i = 1$ till end}
            \STATE do something
        \ENDFOR
     \end{algorithmic}
     \label{aForLoop}
     \caption{some caption}
 \end{algorithm}

Any help will appreciated.

    This page explains it quite well: https://web.archive.org/web/20100901100351/https://www.iam.ubc.ca/old_pages/newbury/tex/numbering.html

    I assume this would work for algorithms as well by redefining the \thealgorithm command, in fact I read on a German forum that a user managed to disable numbering for algorithms by redefining this, so it should work.
