knitexercise: Knit exercise questions and solutions from the same R Markdown document

This package provides a custom knit function, knit_exercise(), which sets the global chunk option include. This is controlled by setting the solutions parameter in the YAML header of the R Markdown document.

Details

To generate your output document with questions set solutions: FALSE. For your output document containing the solutions set solutions: TRUE.

Your YAML header should look something like the following.

---
title: My Title
author: My Name
params:
  solutions: FALSE
knit: knitexercise::knit_exercise
output: html_document
---

For your solutions output document -solutions is added to the filename before the file extension.

There is a template R Markdown document which you can open through the following menu in RStudio: File | New File | R Markdown... | From Template, or with the following code.

rmarkdown::draft(
  "my_exercise.Rmd",
  template = "exercise_template",
  package = "knitexercise"
)
