I was playing with R Markdown in R Studio<\/a> and thought I’d share my results. I can’t believe how easy this is to use! In R Studio, just go File…New…R Markdown. This opens a new template with some helpful code ready to use. This is your Rmd file. It’s basically a script file, except not only can you submit R code from this file, you can also save the output and graphs into one fancy HTML page. This is so much easier than copying-and-pasting R code into a Word Press post and saving\/uploading\/linking to images created in R. For example, see this post<\/a> I wrote a while back. It took a long time to make. <\/p>\n

Anyway, when you’re done, you click the Knit HTML button and your Rmd file is “knitted” into an HTML file. There’s a little bit of extra code you need to use to ensure proper formatting, but it’s super easy to use. Check out this page<\/a> to see how easy it is to use. You just surround chunks of your R code in some simple markup. <\/p>\n

So here’s what I did. First I worked through the Introductory session of Modern Applied Statistics with S<\/a> (MASS) by Venables and Ripley. Here is my Rmd file<\/a> and final output<\/a>. Next I worked problem 4 from chapter 3 from Data Analysis Using Regression and Multilevel\/Hierarchical Models<\/a> by Gelman and Hill. Here’s the Rmd file<\/a> and final output<\/a>. The final output links are the cool parts. Those are just HTML files with embedded images<\/em>. I uploaded the Rmd files so you could see the marked-up R code. As you’ll see, there’s not much there. If you want your R code and associated output and graphs to be nicely formatted in HTML, just surround it with <\/p>\n
