Sorry if this is obvious, but I've been searching for quite a while without
luck. Basically I would like to use Lyx and edit pseudocode using packages
algorithm/algorithmic/algpseudocode. Preferably the notation using arrows
for assignment, as demonstrated in the .tex file.
This .tex file works fine using LaTeX but when importing the file into LyX,
and creating a pdf preview, LyX complains:
-----------------------------------------------------
LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing item.
...uclid} \begin{algorithmic}{[}1] \Procedure

Try typing <return> to proceed.
If that doesn't work, type X <return> to quit.
-----------------------------------------------------
The link that might offer help in this similar issue is broken.

Can anyone help and show how to do this within LyX?
Thanks,
Erwin
