If you write a lot of papers for school, college, or university, using LaTeX is a great way to get organized without focusing so much on the formatting! Once you start using LaTeX, you will find that it is much faster than other processors because the formatting is automatic!!!! You can create long documents without the formatting problems that come with Microsoft Word.

When I use the elsartice-num style, the references are bounded by small brackets () instead of [ ]. What could be the reason? Can you answer the query, please

Hello. I'm not qualified as a LaTeX developer or type-setting expert; therefore, this detail may be best answered by a LaTeX AI query. (LaTeX is written with extensible options that often exceed 100 commands with several variations in a single document making unabridged mastery unlikely for anyone - don't be discouraged.) Query: (at perplexity.ai) In LaTeX, when I use the elsartice-num style, the references are bounded by small brackets () instead of [ ]. What could be the reason? Response: (from perplexity.ai) The reason the references are bounded by small brackets () instead of [] when using the `elsarticle-num` style in LaTeX could be due to the specific configuration of the bibliography style. The `elsarticle-num` style is designed to produce numerical citations and typically uses round brackets for the in-text citations and the reference list. If you need square brackets for the references, you may need to consider using a different bibliography style that provides the desired formatting, such as `elsarticle-harv` for Harvard-style citations[1][2]. It's important to note that the choice of bibliography style in LaTeX can significantly impact the formatting of citations and the reference list. Therefore, selecting the appropriate style is essential to ensure that the document adheres to the required guidelines or preferences. If the `elsarticle-num` style does not meet the specific bracketing requirements, it may be necessary to explore alternative styles or customizations to achieve the desired output.
