In rstudio/rticles: Article Formats for R Markdown

Text based on Wellcome Open Research Overleaf Latex template

\bigskip

Please list all authors that played a significant role in the research involved in the article. Please provide full affiliation information (including full institutional address, ZIP code and e-mail address) for all authors, and identify who is/are the corresponding author(s).

Introduction

The format of the main body of the article is flexible: it should be concise and in the format most appropriate to displaying the content of the article.

Some examples of commonly used \LaTeX{} commands and features are listed below, to help you get started.

Sections

Use section and subsection commands to organize your document. \LaTeX{} handles all the formatting and numbering automatically. Use ref and label commands for cross-references.

Tables

Use the table and tabledata commands for basic tables --- see Table \@ref(tab:widgets), for example.

```{=tex} \begin{table}[h!] \hrule \vspace{0.1cm} \caption{\label{tab:widgets}An example of a simple table with caption.} \centering \begin{tabledata}{llr} \header First name & Last Name & Grade \ \row John & Doe & $7.5$ \ \row Richard & Miles & $2$ \ \end{tabledata} \end{table}

Similarly, you can insert an R chunk and reference with 
[Bookdown referencing](https://bookdown.org/yihui/bookdown/tables.html), i.e.,
`\@ref(tab:label)`.

## Figures

You can upload a figure (JPEG, PNG or PDF) using the files menu. To include it
in your document, use the includegraphics \LaTeX{} command (see the example
below in the source code), or insert using an R chunk and reference with
[Bookdown referencing](https://bookdown.org/yihui/bookdown/figures.html), i.e.,
`\@ref(fig:label)`.

Please give figures appropriate filenames eg: figure1.pdf, figure2.png.

Figure legends should briefly describe the key messages of the figure such that
the figure can stand alone from the main text. However, all figures should also
be discussed in the article text. Each legend should have a concise title of no
more than 15 words. The legend itself should be succinct, while still explaining
all symbols and abbreviations. Avoid lengthy descriptions of methods.

For any figures reproduced from another publication (as long as appropriate
permission has been obtained from the copyright holder ---see under the heading
'Submission'), please include a line in the legend to state that: 'This figure
has been reproduced with kind permission from [include original publication
citation]'.

```{=tex}
\begin{figure} 
  \centering 
  \includegraphics[width=0.4\textwidth]{frog.jpg}
  \caption{\label{fig:your-figure}Your figure legend goes here; it should be
  succinct, while still explaining all symbols and abbreviations. } 
\end{figure}

Mathematics

\LaTeX{} is great at typesetting mathematics. Let $X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n$ be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables with $\text{E}[X_i] = \mu$ and $\text{Var}[X_i] = \sigma^2 < \infty$, and let $$S_n = \frac{X_1 + X_2 + \cdots + X_n}{n} = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i}^{n} X_i$$ denote their mean. Then as $n$ approaches infinity, the random variables $\sqrt{n}(S_n - \mu)$ converge in distribution to a normal $\mathcal{N}(0, \sigma^2)$.

Lists

You can make lists with automatic numbering \dots

2. and like this.

Methods

Methods should include a brief discussion of allowances made (if any) for controlling bias or unwanted sources of variability, and the limitations of the datasets.

Results

This section is not essential for Web Tool papers.

Discussion

The discussion should include the implications of the article results in view of prior work in this field.

Conclusions

Please state what you think are the main conclusions that can be realistically drawn from the findings in the paper, taking care not to make claims that cannot be supported.

Author contributions

In order to give appropriate credit to each author of an article, the individual contributions of each author to the manuscript should be detailed in this section. We recommend using author initials and then stating briefly how they contributed.

Competing interests

All financial, personal, or professional competing interests for any of the authors that could be construed to unduly influence the content of the article must be disclosed and will be displayed alongside the article.

Grant information

Please state who funded the work discussed in this article, whether it is your employer, a grant funder etc. Please do not list funding that you have that is not relevant to this specific piece of research. For each funder, please state the funder's name, the grant number where applicable, and the individual to whom the grant was assigned.

Acknowledgements

This section should acknowledge anyone who contributed to the research or the article but who does not qualify as an author based on the criteria provided earlier (e.g. someone or an organisation that provided writing assistance). Please state how they contributed; authors should obtain permission to acknowledge from all those mentioned in the Acknowledgements section.

Please do not list grant funding in this section.

Handling References

References can be listed in any standard referencing style that uses a numbering system(i.e. not Harvard referencing style), and should be consistent between references within a given article.

Reference management systems such as Zotero provide options for exporting bibliographies as Bib\TeX{} files. Bib\TeX{} is a bibliographic tool that is used with \LaTeX{} to help organize the user's references and create a bibliography. This template contains an example of such a file, \texttt{sample.bib}, which can be replaced with your own. You can \LaTeX{} command \verb|\cite| to create in-text citationsor by using RMarkdown/Bookdown's citations [@Smith:2012qr], and [@Smith:2013jd]
