$begingroup$


This is my first puzzle, so feedback welcome!



I wanted to be the very best, so here are six legendary rileys for you to solve.





  1. My prefix is a mythical creature; my infix has went away, but missing the end of time; my suffix is at the end of many minerals and stones.




  2. My prefix is like a cruel ruler; my infix is a version me; my suffix is a dark, flammable liquid.




  3. My prefix is like a lizard, but only half of it; my infix is a version i; my suffix is close to menace, but lacking a ...




  4. My prefix describes new encounter with somebody; my infix is used to hold another attention; my suffix is something that is revolting




  5. My prefix is two letters for a state; my infix is something curvy; my suffix happens when I'm very hungry




  6. My prefix is something sticky; my infix makes my prefix great; my suffix is like an Egyptian god.

count number of partitions of a set with n elements into k subsets

A CLEAN and SIMPLE way to add appendices to Table of Contents and bookmarks

Image
0 I found a lot of questions abount appendices and ToC. Many users want appendices to be grouped in an Appendix part, however some problems arise with ToC, hyperref, PDF viewer bookmarks, and so on. There are different solutions which require extra packages, command patching and other extra code, however none of them satisfies me. I almost found an easy way to accomplish a good result, where appendices are added to bookmarks in the right way and hyperref links point to the right page. However, the number of the "Appendix" part page is wrong (it's the number of appendix A). Is there any EASY way to fix that? This is a MWE: documentclass{book} usepackage[nottoc,notlot,notlof]{tocbibind} usepackage{hyperref} begin{document} frontmatter tableofcontents mainmatter part{First} chapter{
