LaTeX is a typesetting program for producing high quality technical documents. Formatting LaTeX documents is difficult and modifying pre-built templates often require extensive knowledge of the template.
This template using Rmarkdown offers an easy to use solution to quickly typeset an academic report, whilst using reasonable document options.
Under the hood, a LaTeX template is used to ensure that the document follows the standards. At the same time, composition and formatting can be done using lightweight markdown syntax, and R code and its output can be seamlessly included using {knitr}.
To use this template modify the report.Rmd and Knit the document using
the RStudio UI or render using the {rmarkdown} package:
rmarkdown::render("template/report.Rmd")
