Rmarkdown-centered data analysis workflow

R Markdown centered data analysis workflow

This is a repo that describes R Markdown centered data analysis project workflow, mainly using Vim, but with any text editors. While the main intent was to summarize the workflow that uses R Markdown as what I call, a "home" document, it also shows

• how to use reticulate package to use Python in R Markdown, and
• how to use R objects in Python chunks and vice versa (e.g., Python objects in R chunks)

3 commonly faced scenarios are used to illustrate how to:

• work directly with R/Python code snippets in home (Rmd) document
• source/import functions defined in separate R/Python files into the home (Rmd) document, and use them there
• run and display outputs from separate R/Python files from the home (Rmd) document

Outputs

For a final document, see

• html document
• pdf document

Alternative

For an alternative approach to R Markdown centered workflow using Jupyter notebook, see jupyter/ directory.
