A technical biomedical informatics and computational biology knowledge commons for graduate students and postdocs.

This project is encapsulated in a bookdown document.

There are three key directories:

• docs/ = where the compiled book belongs; don't edit this manually
• chapters/ = high level chapters or topics; edit this file to add new sub-topics
• content/ = place to add content; all content can live here, while the files in the chapters/ directory calls from this one place

Chapters

The files in chapters will determine the order and contents of the Commons.

Each new chapter (i.e, topic) needs to be prefixed with a number, indicating its order in the Commons. This name should also be snake case (e.g. 01_supervised_learning.Rmd).

From within a chapter, to refer to new sub-topics added to the content/ directory, create a code block and refer to the indended file using the child parameter. For example: {r child="content/shinkage_methods.Rmd"} (see https://community.rstudio.com/t/14412/4).
