Figures and Tables

Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com.

Code

You can embed an R code chunk like this:

summary(cars)

     speed           dist       
 Min.   : 4.0   Min.   :  2.00  
 1st Qu.:12.0   1st Qu.: 26.00  
 Median :15.0   Median : 36.00  
 Mean   :15.4   Mean   : 42.98  
 3rd Qu.:19.0   3rd Qu.: 56.00  
 Max.   :25.0   Max.   :120.00  

Including Plots

You can also embed plots and reference them, like so Figure 6.1.

Figure 6.1: Plot of pressure

Note that the echo = FALSE parameter was added to the code chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the plot.

Including Tables

You can also embed tables and reference them with Table 6.1.

library(knitr)
kable(head(iris))

Table 6.1: Iris Data

Sepal.Length	Sepal.Width	Petal.Length	Petal.Width	Species
5.1	3.5	1.4	0.2	setosa
4.9	3.0	1.4	0.2	setosa
4.7	3.2	1.3	0.2	setosa
4.6	3.1	1.5	0.2	setosa
5.0	3.6	1.4	0.2	setosa
5.4	3.9	1.7	0.4	setosa
