        # JSON to LaTeX
        
        `json2latex` is a library for converting a nested Python structure to a format
        accessible in LaTeX.
        
        ## Installation
        
        JSON to LaTeX can be installed using `pip` by running `pip install json2latex`,
        
        ## Usage
        
        Full documentation of JSON to LaTeX is provided [here](https://json2latex.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?badge=latest). The basic usage is as follows.
        
        The following Python code saves a file, `out.tex which includes the necessary
        LaTeX commands to access the data in LaTeX.
        
        ```python
        import json2latex
        
        data = dict(a="test", b=[1, 2])
        
        with open('out.tex', 'w') as f:
            json2latex.dump('data', data, f)
        ```
        
        The same result can be accomplished by running,
        
        ```bash
        json2latex example.json data out.tex
        ```
        
        where `example.json is a JSON file containing the same data is the `data` dictionary in the Python example.
        
        The code output by JSON to LaTeX can be used as follows. First the file needs to be imported in LaTeX using `\input{out.tex}`. Then, the following commands can be used to access the data:
        
        * `\data` will expand to the full JSON representation of the input, `{"a": "test", "b": [1, 2]}`.
        * `\data[a]` will expand to `test`.
        * `\data[b]` will expand to `[1, 2]`.
        * `\data[b][0]` will expand to `1`.
        * `\data[b][1]` will expand to `2`.
        * `\data[b][2]`, and all other undefined values, will expand to `??`.
