This book introduces concepts and skills that can help you tackle real-world data analysis challenges. It covers concepts from probability, statistical inference, linear regression and machine. I'm trying to create an R Markdown file in RStudio, and I get the following error message.

  1. Markdown Report Not Executing in Rstudio (Markdown) - Codedump.io.
  2. A blog on statistics and R aiming at helping academics and professionals working with data to grasp important concepts in statistics and to apply them in R.
  3. The first generation of Markdown rendering for R. This.markdown. package has entered the maintenance-only mode in 2018. You are most likely to be looking at the wrong repo, and should go to the.

R-markdown code chunks

R-markdown is a markdown file with embedded blocks of R code called chunks. There are two types of R code chunks: inline and block.

Markdown

Inline chunks are added using the following syntax:

They are evaluated and inserted their output answer in place.

Block chunks have a different syntax:

And they come with several possible options. Here are the main ones (but there are many others):

  • echo (boolean) controls wether the code inside chunk will be included in the document
  • include (boolean) controls wether the output should be included in the document
  • fig.width (numeric) sets the width of the output figures
  • fig.height (numeric) sets the height of the output figures
  • fig.cap (character) sets the figure captions

They are written in a simple tag=value format like in the example above.

R-markdown document example

Below is a basic example of R-markdown file illustrating the way R code chunks are embedded inside r-markdown.

Converting R-markdown to other formats

The R knitr package can be used to evaluate R chunks inside R-markdown file and turn it into a regular markdown file.

Rstudio

The following steps are needed in order to turn R-markdown file into pdf/html:

  1. Convert R-markdown file to markdown file using knitr.
  2. Convert the obtained markdown file to pdf/html using specialized tools like pandoc.

In addition to the above knitr package has wrapper functions knit2html() and knit2pdf() that can be used to produce the final document without the intermediate step of manually converting it to the markdown format:

If the above example file was saved as income.Rmd it can be converted to a pdf file using the following R commands:

The final document will be similar to the one below.
