Narrating Our Data With RMarkdown

Mon, May 18, 2020 10:00 AM - Mon, May 18, 2020 11:00 AM at Zoom

RMarkdown is a very slick way to present data and its analysis. By writing a markdown file, which is a pure text file easily handled with RStudio, one can create webpages and PDF documents. Things can get much more interactive. One can mix literate text with R code in a very legible way, which makes showcasing data and results much more attractive than simply running a script and reading inline comments. We don't need to copy-paste plots and numbers from RStudio to our final presentation: these will be made on the fly on our report/presentation. Despite its name, it also supports python, and it even allows R and python to exchange information in the same presentation!

Some familiarity with R is expected, and the use of RStudio is highly encouraged. Make sure you have the rmarkdown package installed.
