I would like to give everyone a chance to get everything installed and to get comfortable with these new tools before we dive in. I realize that some of you may have a lot of this done already. If you are interested in developing your skills in HTML and CSS, you can check a fantastic tutorial I linked on the <a href="../../page/tutorials/">Tutorials</a>. You can access that page up top in the navigation bar. Let’s begin.</p> /2020/03/28/lesson-0/ Sat, 28 Mar 2020 21:13:14 -0500 /2020/03/28/lesson-0/ <p>In this mini lesson I’d like to demonstrate <strong>a</strong>) some Markdown syntax, <strong>b</strong>) how you run and format R code, and <strong>c</strong>) how to render R figures. If you read the Course Description you have already seen examples of <a href="https://istmobiome.github.io/DIGEST/Supplementary.html#table_s6">embedded</a> tables. Remember, our primary goal is to create R Markdown documents that capture code, data, and data products.</p> <blockquote> <p>R Markdown integrates the concepts of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming">literate programming</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reproducibility">reproducible research</a>, which, in addition to explaining or documenting itself, also allows others (including an original investigator) to reproduce a data analysis or other research result.</p>
