R Markdown and Its Workflow

R Markdown is a format for writing reproducible, dynamic reports with R. Use it to embed R code and results into slideshows,pdfs,html documents,word files and more.

• OPEN : Open a file that uses the .Rmd extension.
• WRITE : Write content with the easy to use R markdown syntax.
• EMBED : Embed R code that creates output to include in the report.
• RENDER : Replace R code with its output and transform the report into a slideshow, pdf, html or ms word file.

Open File

Start by saving a text file with the extension .Rmd, or open an Rstudio Rmd template.

• In the menu bar, click File > New File > R Markdown…
• A window will open. Select the class of output you would like to make with your .Rmd file
• Select the specific type of output to make with the radio buttons(you can change this later)
• Click OK

Markdown

Next, write your report in plain text. Use markdown syntax to describe how to format text in the final report.

Choose Output

Write a YAML header that explains what type of document to build from your R Markdown file.

“A YAML header is a set of key:value pairs at the start of your file.Begin and end the header with a line of three dashes(—)”

The output value determines which type of file R will build from your .Rmd file.
