R Bootcamp: Course 4

Text Formatting

I am writing a paragraph using plain text. The R Markdown makes use of YAML. I am using the following syntax to italicise, bold, superscript², hyperlink to my Github and write inline equations using Latex such as \(y = m\mu + \sigma\).

• Here is an unordered list
• Name
  • Mamoru
  • Miyano

1. Here is an ordered list
2. Miyano's albums by release order
   • Break
   • Wonder

I use double tab indents for the sub-items.

Tables

I manually enter a table like this

Table 1: Mean and Median for Speed and Distance

Variable	Mean	Median
Speed	15.40	15.0
Distance	42.98	36.0

I am going to report my R code inline by bracketing my work in two single quotes. For example, the mean speed was 15.4, *SD* = 5.29 with a sample size *n* = 50.
