In-person registration (for online, please fill in this form instead)

Date: Friday, 18 November 2022.

Overview: As part of the data science life cycle series, this workshop will introduce you to the intuitive Quarto language in RStudio, and show you how to weave together your R code, output and graphs with text to produce documents and slides. Quarto is a powerful means to turn your analyses in R into documents or presentations as a PDF, HTML, Word, PowerPoint, etc. This tool will be very handy for your next statistics assignment or the conference talk you will be giving.

At the end of this workshop, you will be able to
   > create Quarto documents
   > create Quarto slides
   > adapt the layout of the above using Quarto language
