Skip to contents

This function processes an R Markdown tutorial file to standardize code chunk labels based on section names and exercise numbers. It also renumbers exercises sequentially within each section.

Usage

format_tutorial(file_path)

Arguments

file_path

Character string. Path to the R Markdown file to process.

Value

Character string containing the formatted R Markdown content.

Details

The function applies the following formatting rules:

  • Exercises are renumbered sequentially within each section

  • Code chunks are relabeled according to the pattern: section-name-exercise-number

  • Chunks with eval = FALSE receive a -hint-N suffix

  • Chunks with include = FALSE receive a -test suffix

  • Chunks with label "setup" are not modified

  • Chunks with the "file" option are not modified

  • Unlabeled chunks without key options are not modified

  • All formatted chunks preserve their original options

  • Content between quadruple backticks ( ) is preserved untouched

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Format a tutorial file
new_content <- format_tutorial("path/to/tutorial.Rmd")

# Write the formatted content to a file
writeLines(new_content, "path/to/formatted_tutorial.Rmd")
} # }
