InconsistentTableError: Lines in LaTeX table have to end with \\ #4576
Description
Activity
Can you post you "sample.tex" files somewhere (maybe in a gist) so that I can try to reproduce the problem?
The LaTeX reader currently has some limitations, see also #1525 most importantly it expects each table row to be on one and only one line, but it also cannot deal with
\multicolumnor\multirowcommands, etc.
While I agree that it would be great to be a little more flexible in reading, we will never be able to cover all LaTeX features.- added a commit that references this issue
on Feb 9, 2016 Do you want to work on this?
It's not clear to me how to solve this best, but if you have an idea that would be great.(Note: In general it is the best to provide an example table outside of the astropy repro. We dont' want large files in there like your example that are not needed for astropy itself.) If we ever merge anything from your branch the nthis file will be part of the git history, making the astropy repository bigger and slower to download for everyone. So, if you work on this, please start a new branch and do not continue from the branch you pushed here.)
Great! Looking forward to see what you can come up with.
A word of advice: I suggest that you start with a small step and when that works you wrote tests for it and push it here, so we can see if you are on the right track.

In refrence solve the previous issue when i tried to run latex file it result in the following issue
Latex reader should accept tables without \begin/\end #4295
