: subsubsections should be numbered?
In "A Guide to LATEX 2e, 2nd edition", by Kopka and Daly, Addison Wesley, they
write on page 40:
"Section numbering is carried out to the level given by the number
secnumdepth. This limit is set to 2 for book and report, and to 3 for article.
This means that for book and report, the section numbering extends only to the
level of \subsection and for article to \subsubsection.
"In order to extend {or reduce} the level of the section numbering, it is
necesssary to change the value of secnumdepth. This is done with the command
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{<italic>num</italic>}
"... In article, <italic>num</italic> may take on values from 0 to 5, and in
book and report from -1 to 5."
According to the authors (on the same page), there are 5 levels of numbering:
level 1 is \section
level 2 is \subsection
level 3 is \subsubsection
level 4 is \paragraph
level 5 is \subparagraph
Level 1 is always \section, so that is class article, \part is level 0, while
in book and report \part is level -1, and \chapter is level 0.
I hasten to add that I am just quoting the book---I don't use a lot of section
numbering myself, so I haven't tried this.
Hope this helps!
Wes
