Scenario
You are a data scientist working on code for an analysis identifying Gentoo Penguins. and now need to share the results as a report.
This is a high-level meeting with leadership, and you are going to present your findings.
The analysis
Head over to the reference analysis code To see the base report.
Quarto report
We’ll convert our reference analysis code to make it a reproducible report.
Code chunks
A code chunk begins with 3 backticks and a set of { } with the language you want to use.
For example here’s an example piece of python code inside a code chunk
```{python}
# some python code
3 + 3
```Chunk options
Chunk options can help control how the final rendered output. You add them with a #| comment on the first line of a code chunk.
For example, you can use include: false to hide all the code and output, but still have the code render in the background. This is great when you need to load and process data but do not want it displayed in the final document.
```{python}
#| include: false
a = 3 + 3
``````{python}
print(a)
```Rendering the document
You can render the document with:
quarto render my_document.qmdIf you want the results to update every time you save, you can use
quarto preview my_document.qmdNow you try
Take the reference analysis code code, turn the code into separate code chunks, and add some prose text to explain what is happening.
