Hi Joanne, I’m glad I could be of help! Thanks so much for your encouragement. If you’re interested, I’ve made an entire course similar to this style of this video over on my website (www.rforecology.com). It covers the basics of R for ecologists, ranging from data visualization to advanced data wrangling. You can also watch the first four lectures in the course for free on this RUclips channel!
I am taking Google Data Analytics course in Coursera and this video is really helpful and explain much clearer than in the course. Thanks for the teaching!
I am really glad and happy to watch your tutorial. I heard about Rmarkdown recently I wish that I heard about it before it is the best way to learn and organize your codes at the same time
It's a great tool to have! Just note that sometimes when using R-Markdown, some users have reported the code runs slower than if it was in an R script when there are hundreds of lines. Not when knitting, but trying to run their entire .rmd in R-Studio. It shouldn't be an issue in most cases.
@@RforEcology I did to be fair. Pls how can i give access to this markdown to people who visit my portfolio website? Can one generate a link to use on the website?
@@folashadeolaitan6222 That’s a good question. It depends on how you’re hosting your website and, if it’s a service, what the website allows. If you knit the markdown file as an HTML output format, some website hosting services allow you to upload these as a static website. Here’s a link with more information: bookdown.org/yihui/rmarkdown-cookbook/html-share.html Another method would be to knit the markdown file as a PDF and upload it to your portfolio as a viewable document. Hope this helps!
Glad you enjoyed it! To set up a CRAN mirror, you can either: A) Go to the "Tools" in your top menu bar, then "Global Options", and then click "Packages" on the left column. From here you'll be able to change your CRAN repository. B) Run the function "chooseCRANmirror()". It will print a list of CRAN mirrors to choose from and you simply type the number of the one you'd like!
This was an awesome video. But, I didn't understand what the point of creating an R project was. It sounds like a very interesting concept. If this was the subject of a future video, I would definitely watch!
Hi Pete, awesome inquiry. The point of creating an R project is to properly arrange and organize all files that are related to a specific project you're working on. Basically, all of your related files (scripts, data, output, etc) are packaged into a folder that is easily shared with others. You can check out our blog post here to read more about it: www.rforecology.com/post/organizing-your-r-studio-projects/
This is one of the best tutorials! Thank you so much, I thought R Markdown was something really difficult that I would take days to learn but 45 mins is all it took! Thanks for your awesome work. One question though: Is there a way to suppress console output? and only print like the most relevant things like the plots or final output of an inferential stats analysis?
So glad to hear you enjoyed the tutorial! Yes, R Markdown isn't such a scary thing to learn!! Yes, there is a way to suppress console output. Basically, you can add different things to the {r} section that denotes the start of the code chunk. For example, {r, results = 'hide'} will hide the console output. You can check out all the different things you can add here: bookdown.org/yihui/rmarkdown-cookbook/hide-one.html
No problem, it's my pleasure! I don't think many people realize how useful R Markdown can be until they've seen someone else use it. Thanks for supporting my content.
Hi Luka, tank you for the informative tutorial. Would you please advise how to get the split screen, showing both scripting window and the Rmarkdowm output side by side.
Glad you liked it! To have the knitted document in the viewer window instead of a pop-out, you go to Tools -> Global Options -> R Markdown. Then there is a line stating "Show output preview in: ". In the drop-down menu next to it, click "Viewer Pane" and "Apply" in the bottom right and you're all set!

Hi, thanks for the detailed video. Could you make a similar video on how to sync your RMD to GitHub? I use a Mac and it’s almost impossible for me to understand how to do that. Thanks❤
Hey there, it's my pleasure. It's definitely a topic I have considered making a video on, but at the moment, I do not have exact plans for it yet. If you're looking for a more immediate solution, this guide by Jenny Bryan and his team walks you through how to build a repository, link it to R-Studio, and start pushing all of your revisions to GitHub: happygitwithr.com/rstudio-git-github.html
I have one question, I how can I able to plot 5 variable in a graph. Will it be possible or should I separate the variable by two variables and work on it??
Thank you for this tutorial! Made my life so much easier. The only thing I am having trouble with is using the Pipe operator. I can get the output in the console, but I keep getting the error "could not find function "%>%". I know I have the right packages installed as well . . .
So good to hear that you like the tutorial! Hm...so you're totally sure you have run either of the following lines of code?: library(tidyverse) library(magrittr) The pipe operator comes with the magrittr package, which is folded into the tidyverse. If you're still having trouble, you can email us with a screenshot or a code snippet at luka@rforecology.com and we can help you troubleshoot further.
I hope you find this message well - ChatGPT recommended this video :) "To understand how to use table() in R Markdown and visualize the output, you can check out these helpful video tutorials: R Markdown Tutorial - A powerful tool for learning R - This video provides a comprehensive guide to using R Markdown, which includes sections on displaying tables and embedding R code within R Markdown to generate dynamic reports( RUclips ).

Huh, that's interesting. A few questions so I can try and help figure this out: 1) Are you still able to knit a PDF, or does it not actually output a file? 2) Have you installed both tinytex and LaTeX and are they both updated to the latest versions? 3) Are you getting any error messages when you try to knit it?
@@RforEcology Thanks for your reply.. I've successfully knitted my file as the error was asking to restart r or reinstall the package after doing reinstallation it is working well..
` this is a grave accent (the one used to insert the R code inside R Markdown as in ```{r}) ' this is a straight apostrophe or a straight single quotation mark ‘ this is a curly opening single quote ’ this is a curly closing single quote or a curly apostrophe
That's a great question! You can hide your code in the final document/webpage and still show your result by putting "echo=FALSE" in the chunk header. It would look something like this: " ```{r, echo=FLASE} "
Hey there, that error usually comes from trying to call/reference an object that was not properly defined. This could be due to the names not being the same, accidentally not running the line where you define the variable, or some other less common issues. One way you can check if the object you are trying to call is in your environment is by running "ls()" in your console. This will list all the objects currently saved in your environment to see if maybe it's under a different name (capitalization and spacing matters) or possibly wasn't saved.
That's a great question. You can knit your code into a Word document if you click the down-pointing arrow next to the "Knit" button and click "Knit to Word".
Do you know how to get Bash chunks to work on Rmarkdown? I keep getting this error: "'bash' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." I have bash installed on my computer, but I don't know how to get R to recognize it.
Hi Tejas, thanks for your question! Once you load a data set into your R environment, you can just use the function summary(your_data) to get basic statistics (mean, median, max) for each of your data's columns. Alternatively, you can use the function str(your_data), which describes the structure of your data frame. I hope I understood your inquiry correctly; hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
