# A minimal R Markdown example

A quote:

> Markdown is not LaTeX.

To compile me, run this in R:

    library(knitr)
    knit('001-minimal.Rmd')

See output here.

## code chunks

A paragraph here. A code chunk below (remember the three backticks):

    1+1

    ## [1] 2

    .4-.7+.3 # what? it is not zero!

    ## [1] 5.551115e-17

## graphics

It is easy.

    plot(1:10)

    hist(rnorm(1000))

## inline code

Yes I know the value of pi is 3.1415927, and 2 times pi is 6.2831853.

## math

Sigh. You cannot live without math equations. OK, here we go: \(\alpha+\beta=\gamma\). Note this is not supported by native markdown. You probably want to try RStudio, or at least the R package markdown, or the function `knitr::knit2html()`.

## nested code chunks

You can write code within other elements, e.g. a list

1. foo is good

       strsplit('hello indented world', ' ')[[1]]

       ## [1] "hello"    "indented" "world"

2. bar is better

Or inside blockquotes:

> Here is a quote, followed by a code chunk:

>     x = 1:10
>     rev(x^2)

>     ##  [1] 100  81  64  49  36  25  16   9   4   1

## conclusion

Nothing fancy. You are ready to go. When you become picky, go to the knitr website.
