Markdown Notation

Efficiently using this package in the stock assessment workflow requires a basic understanding of markdown notation. Google docs easily recognizes these types of calls and formats it during writing.

Any in-text markdown within google docs can be brought into the local template using the function update_local(). This reference is intended to help the user smoothly incorporate markdown language into plain text so the features of ASAR can easily incorporate into the workflow.

In order to add a piece of code into the text directly encase R code within a pair of backticks (`). For example:

params$region

The above example shows how one would incorporate the region parameter into a sentence in a markdown or quarto file. In google docs, this notation formatted to green and the font roboto mono.

Other ways to incorporate markdown notation include:

  • in-line calculations: \4 resulting in 4
