Knitting to make HTML #4

Open mchaji1 opened 4 years ago

mchaji1 commented 4 years ago

Hello, This is my first time using the knit function in R and when finishing up I received the following: file:///Users/dawn/Desktop/Lab-01-Chaji.html I am a little skeptical because the HTML looks just like a pathway on my computer. Is this typical?

Thank you!

@mchaji1 You're correct, that's the path to your file, stored locally on your machine.

Before you knit your .Rmd file, RStudio makes you save it to a local directory of your choosing.

Wherever you save the .Rmd file, once knit, you'll find the .html output in the same directory.

Hope this helps!

Edit: It looks like you've saved to your desktop - try looking there first!
