Reproducible research means that future you and anyone else will be able to pick up your analysis and reproduce the same results, including figures and tables.
-
This implies well-documented research, well commented codes and documents and reasoning behind analyses
-
Also, the communication aspect should not be an afterthought, it should be recorded with the analysis as you are going through it.
Rmarkdown is a way of literate programing that keeps code, words and sentences together. The ability to easily collaborate and share your analysis goes hand-in-hand with good record-keeping and reproducibility.
- Software tool: R / RStudio
- Communication tools: Markdown / Rmarkdown
- Version control tools: Git / Github
Markdown or Rmardown (when built in R environment) is a way of literate programing that keeps code, words and sentences together.
The ability to easily collaborate and share your analysis goes hand-in-hand with good record-keeping and reproducibility.
-
We can repurpose the git version control tool and leverage the GitHub remote hosting provider for managing and sharing our work.
-
Git + GitHub will provide a very powerful resource for global collaboration and exposure of your work.
-
In this workshop, we are going to use version control our work and push it to github, which can then be accessed by your collaborators and supervisors.
-
Git + GitHub should become an integral part of your workflow.
