TidyX Episode 94: Rmarkdown Guide - Parameterized Reports
Parameterized reports allow data scientists to multiply their impact by reducing the amount of work they need to do to produce new reports. Using the YAML header, a data scientist can set parameters that change based on user inputs to create customized reports at the click of a button. In this episode we go over the basics of adding a paramter, how to customize the input either interactively or programmatically, and using the parameter in your code. Then we create a custom example on pulling NBA basketball data for multiple years and displaying a team of interest.
