7.6 Figures and other floating bodies

You can use figure and table environments and the \caption command. They will not float, but will simply appear at the given position in the text. No special space is left around them, so put a center environment in a figure. The table environment is mainly used with the tabular environment. You can use the \caption command to place a caption. The starred versions table* and figure* are supported as well.
