Using data to drive decisions requires clear and timely reporting. Yet building reports by hand or repeating point-and-click sequences is inefficient. RMarkdown documents offer the ability to integrate text, data analysis, and output into one professional document that can be rendered with a single click. Learn to customize the look and feel of the report and organize your content across several RMarkdown documents to streamline workflow. No prior experience with R is needed.
Learning Outcomes
- Understand the basic anatomy of an RMarkdown document and use it to create reports that combine script, English annotation or descriptions, and output (tables and graphs).
- Develop skills for debugging knit errors.
- Modify yaml headers to customize report look and feel, and prepare reports in html, pdf or word.
- Use child documents to aid organization of long reports and division of workflow.
