R Markdown documents

R Markdown documents are a way to create integrated reports that combine written explanation, code, and output (like charts or analysis results) in a single file. They allow you to write descriptions alongside computational steps, making it easy to reproduce and share data analyses. When you "knit" an R Markdown file, it processes the code and integrates the output into a polished document, often in formats like HTML, PDF, or Word. This approach promotes transparency and reproducibility, blending narrative with data insights seamlessly.
