TO INCLUDE BIBLIOGRAPHY OR REFERENCES:
1) Create a file biblio.bib and include the details of your references there.
This file must contain the details in the following format:
%Note that {D} and {I} below are placed within brackets, that is because if we miss the
brackets these letters willbe displayed in lowercase.
@Article{robertson:96,
author =
{Robertson, Douglas S. and
Grant, Michael C.},
title =
{Feedback and Chaos in {D}arwinian Evolution, part {I}:
Theoretical Considerations},
journal =
{Complexity},
year =
1996,
volume =
2,
number =
1,
month =
{sept/oct},
pages =
{10-14}
}
%| Books and collections
@Book{brown:1836,
author =
{Brown, Thomas},
title =
{The Conchologist's Text-book},
publisher = {Archibald Fullerton and Co},
year =
1836,
address =
{Glasgow}
}
2. In the main latex file namely bibdemo.tex include the following two lines:
\bibliography{biblio}

% the name of the BibTeX file without extension

\bibliographystyle{plain}

% the type of formatting to use

3. Plain is one type of formating. To know different available types, refer

http://amath.colorado.edu/documentation/LaTeX/reference/faq/bibstyles.html

4. When you need to cite a paper.. just say \cite{robertson:96} in your main document

5. Then, compile the document using these commands:

latex bibdemo
bibtex bibdemo
latex bibdemo
latex bibdemo
Note that you must do "latex filename" many times.

TO INCLUDE FIGURE IMAGE
\usepackage{graphicx}
What next?
The best way is to read the following page:

To reverse number the items:

1) download revnum.sty file and install it
2) Use the following code to get the countdown listing:

\documentclass[12]{article}

\usepackage{revnum} % reverse nunmbering environment

\begin{document}
%this counter must be manually
% set so that the last publication is labelled as 1
\newcounter{totalnumpubs}
\setcounter{totalnumpubs}{100}

\begin{revnumerate}[\value{totalnumpubs}]

\item Sudarshan
\item Megha
\end{revnumerate}

\end{document}
