This repository contains IB Economics revision material for all 4 units of the curriculum, plus helper scripts for generating economics diagrams and compiling the detailed notes into PDF.

• IB_Economics_Topics_Units2-4.md: topic checklist / revision outline.
• IB_Economics_DETAILED_Units2-4.md: detailed notes source used for PDF export.
• generate_graphs.py: generates all economics diagrams as PNG files.
• generate_graphs_live.py: runs selected diagrams and supports live watch mode.
• generate_command.txt: example pandoc command for compiling the detailed notes into PDF.
• COMPILE_TOOL_GUIDE.md: short setup guide for the PDF compile toolchain.

• pandoc
• A LaTeX engine with xelatex available on your PATH

This repo's compile command uses:

• --pdf-engine=xelatex
• Georgia, Segoe UI, and Consolas as fonts

If those fonts are missing, either install them or change the font flags in generate_command.txt.

• Python 3
• Packages from requirements.txt

Install Python packages with:

pip install -r requirements.txt

The example compile command is stored in generate_command.txt.

On Windows PowerShell, run the equivalent command from the repository root:

pandoc "IB_Economics_DETAILED_Units2-4.md" ` --pdf-engine=xelatex ` --number-sections ` -V documentclass=report ` -V fontsize=11pt ` -V linestretch=1.2 ` -V geometry:margin=1in ` -V mainfont="Georgia" ` -V sansfont="Segoe UI" ` -V monofont="Consolas" ` -V colorlinks=true ` -V linkcolor=black ` -V urlcolor=black ` -V citecolor=black ` -o "IB_Economics_DETAILED_Units2-4.pdf"

If pandoc or xelatex is not installed yet, use the setup steps in COMPILE_TOOL_GUIDE.md.

Generate all diagrams:

python3 generate_graphs.py

List available diagram names:

python3 generate_graphs_live.py --list

Render one diagram:

python3 generate_graphs_live.py --only 2_3a_market_equilibrium

Watch one diagram and re-render on save:

python3 generate_graphs_live.py --watch --only 2_3a_market_equilibrium

• generate_graphs.py currently writes output to the OUT_DIR path defined inside the script.
• generate_graphs_live.py can override the output folder with --out-dir.
