# A Minimal Example for Markdown

This is a minimal example of using **knitr** to produce an _HTML_ page from _Markdown_.

## R code chunks

Aqui eu abri ***um bloco*** de código

```{r setup}
# set global chunk options: images will be 7x5 inches
knitr::opts_chunk$set(fig.width=7, fig.height=5)
options(digits = 4)
```

Now we write some code chunks in this markdown file:


```{r computing}
x <- 1+1 # a simple calculator
set.seed(123)
rnorm(5)  # boring random numbers
```

We can also produce plots:

```{r}
par(mar = c(4, 4, .1, .1))
with(mtcars, {
  plot(mpg~hp, pch=20, col='darkgray')
  lines(lowess(hp, mpg))
})
```

## Inline code

Inline R code is also supported, e.g. the value of `x` is `r x=3; x`, and 2 &times; $\pi$; $\beta$
= `r 2*pi`.

## Math

LaTeX math as usual: $f(\alpha, \beta) \propto x^{\alpha-1}(1-x)^{\beta-1}$.

## Misc

You can indent code chunks so they can nest within other environments such as lists.

1. the area of a circle with radius x
    ```{r foo}
    pi * x^2
    ```
2. OK, that is great

To compile me, use

```{r compile, eval=FALSE}
library(knitr)
knit('knitr-minimal.Rmd')
```

## Conclusion

Markdown is super easy to write. Go to **knitr** [homepage](http://yihui.name/knitr) for details.
