What is the major difference between running code in an .qmd document in the Source pane versus running code in the Console?
All code gets run/executed in the Console
The Source pane is simply a text editor: you can write and save code here to edit later. When you run code in the Source pane, it actually gets executed in the Console.
In this course, we will almost always write our code in the Source pane within a
.Rmddocument.Code run in the Console will be “lost” whenever you quit RStudio.
The working directory is the default location where R will look for files you want to load and where it will put any files you save. All files are read in relation to the current working directory!
Where can we see the current working directory?
What if we want to change the working directory?
