Reporting your data and insights in writing, rather than just visually, is a common but often boring feature of data work. With R Markdown, you can create narrative reports that auto-update as you add new data, saving a lot of effort! During this workshop, you will be introduced to R Markdown with a focus on using it to create dynamically updating text reports. We will also dip our toes into conditional adjustments to the text using if-else loops.

Please bring a laptop with R and RStudio installed so that you can fully participate in the workshop. If you do not already have the package installed, you can install {rmarkdown} on your system by using install.packages(“rmarkdown”)in advance. The work will also use general {tidyverse} features, so having this package set installed is an advantage.

After the workshop, we will have ample time for networking and chatting over some snacks and drinks (courtesy of the Software Sustainability Institute).

Dr Eva Murzyn works as a statistician for the Scottish Government, setting up Reproducible Analytical Pipelines and automation of routine health data reporting. Previously, she has taught research and statistics during her career as a lecturer at University of Glasgow and University of Edinburgh.
