Usage

[pschloss]

I think learners could use more support to get going. I wasn't sure whether I'm supposed to be working within the Rmd files or if make should have generated html files that I worked with. When I didn't find html files, I worried that something was wrong with the Makefile.

The links in the README and the files in the paper refer to the raw versions of the files in exercises/ rather than exercises_sequenced/. I think it would be better, from the learner's perspective to refer to things in exercises_sequenced/ since that's the directory they are supposed to be working in.

Perhaps the repository could include a Rproj file so that learners can open Rstudio in the correct working directory?

Adding my comments to this issue because it's related to the Usage:

• [ ] Step 5 of "How to Use This Repo" should make it clear the directory name is exercises not assignments.
  • [ ] I don't quite understand the 'dXY' prefix, is this from a previous version? After I run make, I get file names like e-stat03-descriptive-master.Rmd
  • [ ] I agree with @pschloss, could you remove the requirement for (novice) users to run make ? If you're worried about the exercises being out-of-date from the source, you could consider running a GitHub Action that automates running (and committing) of the exercises after every commit.
