results : 'markup', 'asis', 'hold', 'hide'

tidy : whether to reformat R code

cache : whether to cache results

fig.width, fig.height, out.width, out.height : device and output size of figures

include : whether to include the chunk results in output

child : filenames of child documents

engine : language name (R, python, ...)

Functions

knit() : the main function in this package; knit input document and write output
