% For it to run successfully, ensure the following:
% - the Python package Pygments. Install with the following command:
%       python -m pip install Pygments
% - pdflatex (or xelatex) is executed with the flag --shell-escape
%   If you are using a TEX editor, you can modify the typesetting 
%   command somewhere in the settings.
