G Example Chapter

This intro was copied from the 1st chapter of the example bookdown repo. I’m keeping it temporarily for reference.

You can label chapter and section titles using {#label} after them, e.g., we can reference the Intro Chapter. If you do not manually label them, there will be automatic labels anyway

Figures and tables with captions will be placed in figure and table environments, respectively.

par(mar = c(4, 4, .1, .1))
plot(pressure, type = 'b', pch = 19)
Here is a nice figure!

Figure G.1: Here is a nice figure!

Reference a figure by its code chunk label with the fig: prefix, e.g., see Figure G.1. Similarly, you can reference tables generated from knitr::kable(), e.g., see Table G.1.

knitr::kable(
  head(iris, 20), caption = 'Here is a nice table!',
  booktabs = TRUE
)
Table G.1: Here is a nice table!

You can write citations, too. For example, we are using the bookdown package (Xie 2024) in this sample book, which was built on top of R Markdown and knitr (Xie 2015).
