How do I cite range of references using latex and bibtex


Hello Suppose I have 3 references that goes one after another i.e [1][2][3].

But I want to see [1]-[3].

What should I do.

Thank you.


Solution

  • There are ways to change how bibtex formats your citations. One way is to use the cite package. Another is the natbib package perhaps with the sort&compress option (i.e., \usepackage[sort&compress]{natbib}). Many publications also have their own styles that will accomplish this, I often use the revtex styles even when not writing for APS journals since they work quite well. Try some of these to see if they help.
