How changes were made to README.md

  1. Forked repository hw01 from uc-cfss on GitHub
  2. Copied forked repository URL using green "Clone repository" button on GitHub
  3. Created new project in RStudio using that repository URL (File>New Project>Version Control>Git; paste repository URL into "Repository URL" line; check "Open in new session"; click "Create Project")
  4. Checked box next to "README.md" file (appears in the "Files" tab of the lower right pane)
  5. Installed RMarkdown (code is: install.packages("rmarkdown"))
  6. Used online sources to write code in "README.md" for HW01
  7. Used "Preview" button to view changes
  8. Committed changes, pushed to GitHub
  9. Refreshed GitHub repository to ensure changes appeared correctly

Difficulties encountered

While (of course) it took some experimentation to write the code correctly and preview it, the main difficulty I encountered was an error message when I attempted to commit changes. Sometimes RStudio would return the message fatal error- and fatal is a frightening word to see on my computer! However, when I would click "commit" again, the correct message was returned ("insertion, deletion" etc.), and when I pushed the changes to GitHub, they appeared nearly exactly as I had seen in the "Preview" option of RStudio (although I didn't realize that option existed for a commit or two!).

  1. Commit the .gitignore before other commits
  2. If you are using bash, you can run the command git status to check what files you have added before committing them. This is best practice, especially at first.

Nicole did a really good job. Her file included all the basic R Markdown technics mentioned on the course website. What's more, her work is very interesting. It showed great creativity. I like her content. I encountered fatal error as well. All in all, it's a great work!
