Building the book
Prerequisites
The following system package must be installed:
- pandoc
- pandoc-citeproc
See the instructions for installing pandoc.
The following R packages must be installed in order to build the book:
- bookdown
- tufte
- reshape
- ggplot2
- gridExtra
- formatR
They can be installed using, e.g.,
> install.pacakges('tufte')Build steps
To build the HTML version of the book from R using the bookdown package,
> library(bookdown)
> render_book('index.Rmd')The first page of the book can then be found in the file _book/index.html.
A web connection is required to render the mathematics in the web version because it uses MathJax.
