Introduction to Quarto (R Markdown) In-Person / Online
Overview: As part of the data science life cycle series, this workshop will introduce you to the intuitive Quarto language in RStudio, and show you how to weave together your R code, output and graphs with text to produce documents and slides. Quarto is a powerful means to turn your analyses in R into documents or presentations as a PDF, HTML, Word, PowerPoint, etc. This tool will be very handy for your next statistics assignment or the conference talk you will be giving.
At the end of this workshop, you will be able to
- create Quarto documents
- create Quarto slides
- adapt the layout of the above using Quarto language
