\section{Introduction}
\lipsum[4-6]
\subsection{Citations}
Here, we refer to \textcite{smit54,colu92}. We can also use parentheses to cite \parencite{phil99}.
\section{Figures and Tables}
In \cref{fig:mcsLogo}, we can see a the MCS logo, which occupies 30\% of the width of a column. Notice we use the \verb|\cref{}| command to get a clickable link.
\begin{figure}[h]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=.3\linewidth]{packages/logo}
\caption{MCS Logo}
\label{fig:mcsLogo}
\end{figure}
If we have a large figure or table, and we want to break out of the two-column layout, occupying the whole page, we could instead make use a starred environment (\verb|\begin{figure*}...\end{figure*}| instead of \verb|\begin{figure}...\end{figure}|). For instance,
\cref{tab:aSampleTable} does this.
\begin{table*}[ht]
\centering
\renewcommand\arraystretch{1.3} % This adds more vertical spacing
\begin{tabular}{l|c p{3cm}}
Column 1 & Column 2 & Column 3 \\
\hline
Left-aligned text & Centred text & A column no wider than 3cm \\
x & y & z
\end{tabular}
\caption{A sample table}
\label{tab:aSampleTable}
\end{table*}
\LaTeX{} tables are not the easiest thing to work with, if you want you can use a spreadsheet software and then paste a table into a tool like \url{https://www.tablesgenerator.com/}, which will generate a table you can copy and paste into a \LaTeX{} document.
