% File: bckwrdexample.tex
%
% Backwards writing example for the package texpower.sty.
%
% This file can be compiled with pdfLaTeX or (standard) LaTeX. When using standard LaTeX, the dvi file produced should
% be processed with
%
% dvips -Ppdf -j0 bckwrdexample
%
% afterwards processing the resulting ps file with
%
% distill bckwrdexample.ps
%
% (The syntax is for a unix system with tetex 1.0 and distiller 3. Modify appropriately for other configurations.)
%
% The resulting pdf file is meant for presenting `interactively' with Adobe Acrobat Reader.

\makeslidetitle{\macroname{stepwise} Example: Writing Backwards}\label{Sec:ExBackwards}
%
% The following example doesn't really demonstrate a useful application. Its purpose is twofold:
% a) Show how the functionality of \stepwise can be extended by the user by referring to the macros provided by the
% package.
% b) Show that \steps can appear in any order, and can be made to appear simultaneously in several places (and mention
% the problems this raises).
% We define a new macro \backstep which will call \step, but the steps will be executed in _reverse_ order.
% This is achieved as follows:
% * We refer to the counter totalsteps, which gives the total number of steps occurring in this argument of
% \stepwise.
% * From this, we subtract the value of the counter stepcommand, which gives the number of this \step command (in the
% order of appearance).
% * The result is compared with the counter step, which gives the number of the current step.
% (the default for `triggering' a \step is the condition \value{step}=\value{stepcommand})
%
% Note that if the ifthen Package would support this syntax, we could use the bracketed optional argument of \step (as
% in the previous example), defining \backstep like this:
%
% \newcommand{\backstep}{\step[\value{totalsteps}-\value{stepcommand}+1=\value{step}]}
%
% As \ifthenelse doesn't offer this syntax, we have to calculate \value{totalsteps}-\value{stepcommand}+1 in a separate
% counter. This doesn't fit the intended use of \step's optional argument. But hey, there is another syntax ;-)
% If the optional argument is specified with braces (...), then it can contain an arbitrary test which takes two
% arguments and selects the first if it succeeds and the second if it fails. We use this variant here.
%
\newcounter{reversestepno}%
\newcommand{\backstep}{\step(\setcounter{reversestepno}{\value{totalsteps}-\value{stepcommand}+1}\ifthenelse{\value{step}=\value{reversestepno}})}%
%
% We use the custom command \parstepwise which not only wraps the whole argument of \stepwise into a minipage (because
% otherwise vertical spacing goes haywire, don't ask me why), but also gives substance to steps.
%
% If the following \stepwise command would only contain the calls to \backstep, everything would be fine.
% But we _had_ to add something else....
% In the second part of this application of \stepwise, several steps are executed simultaneously with those executed
% backwards in the first part. This means the value of the counter totalsteps is 14, i.e. the calls to \backstep
% correspond to steps 8...14. To remedy this, we decree that the first step performed shall be number 7, by setting
% the counter firststep accordingly in the optional argument of \stepwise.
%
\parstepwise[\setcounter{firststep}{\value{totalsteps}/2+\value{firststep}}]
