Renaming and resetting Chapter in LaTeX

latex

I have two questions in LaTeX:

  1. How to reset the chapter counter to 1 or to set it to any other number?
  2. How to rename Chapter 1 to Paper A? To rename it to Paper 1, I have this solution:

    \renewcommand\chaptername{Paper}
    

The first chapter then becomes Paper 1. But I can't get to rename 1 to A so as to get Paper A.

Best Answer

This is from memory, but for the first:

\setcounter{chapter}{1}

And for the second:

\renewcommand{\chaptername}{Paper}
\renewcommand{\thechapter}{\Alph{chapter}}
