Join 📚 James's Highlights
A batch of the best highlights from what Jimmy's read, .
The results of an analysis are shown and discussed in a markup fle that is used to create a PDF document. Researchers often do not explicitly document the relationships between fles that they used in their research. For example, the results of an analysis–a table or fgure–may be copied and pasted into a presentation document. It can be very diÿcult for future researchers to trace the table or fgure back to a particular statistical model and a particular data set without clear documentation. Therefore, it is important to make the links between your fles explicit.

CRAN has a submission checklist, and you could either roll your own or rely on usethis::use_release_issue() creating a GitHub issue with important items. If you don’t develop your package on GitHub you could still have a look at the items for inspiration. The devtools::release() function will ask you whether you ran a spell check.
