I am preparing my PhD thesis in latex. In the format that I have, I see, more than once, the code \include{chapter#}, where # is the appropriate number. I am guessing it is supposed to "bring over" a chapter from somewhere, but I am completely clueless how that works. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

    Make a new text file in the same working directory with the name chapter1.tex and type here \chapter[Introduction]{Nice Introduction} Foo and more foo. End dot. Then save the changes. Now open the main file and comment all these include commands (just put a % before) except in \include{chapter1}. Now compile the main file and it should work (at this respect). – Fran Jan 02 '24 at 23:12

\include{chapter4} just includes a file chapter4.tex there is nothing special about numbers, if chapter 4 is about dogs you could call the file dogs.tex rather than chapter4.tex and use \include{dogs}
