Garrett Grolemund | R Markdown The bigger picture | RStudio (2019)

Statistics has made science resemble math, so much so that we've begun to conflate p-values with mathematical proofs. We need to return to evaluating a scientific discovery by its reproducibility, which will require a change in how we report scientific results. This change will be a windfall to commercial data scientists because reproducible means repeatable, automatable, parameterizable, and schedulable.

I just love R markdown. R itself was tough at the beginning but as I keep going, it gets easier. I also love that you can use LaTeX code and even Python inside R and R markdown.

Should be required watching for everyone who calls (or wants to) call themselves a scientist
