Dear Kevin,
actually you're mixing markdown and LaTeX syntax, which is the reason
why you see LaTeX code in the PDF. You have to choose...
1) Either you wish to produce an RMarkdown document and your sections,
subsections... should read:
# Abstract
In this document, ...
## Boundaries of the Radnor-Winston neighborhood
```{r rw_map, fig.width = 6, fig.height = 4, out.width = "80%", dev
= "pdf",
fig.cap = "Map of RW neighborhood\label{RWneigh}"}
## Creating a polygon for RW neighborhood, based on CRS 6487 (NAD83
## (2011) / Maryland ) map in meters:
base_x <- 433000
base_y <- 186000
[etc]...
```
But you may not use all the power of LaTeX (easily at least).
2) Or you wish to produce a .Rnw (knitr / Sweave file using LaTeX) and
you should use another R code delimitation convention (and change the
heading part of the document to LaTeX usage, that is
\documentclass{}... \usepackage{}...):
<<r rw_map, fig.width = 6, fig.height = 4, out.width = "80%", dev =
"pdf", fig.cap = "Map of RW neighborhood\label{RWneigh}">
## Creating a polygon for RW neighborhood, based on CRS 6487 (NAD83
## (2011) / Maryland ) map in meters:
base_x <- 433000
base_y <- 186000
[etc]
@
Depending on your choice, compiling the document goes through a
different process but both are possible and relatively simple (either
from within RStudio or using any other editor).
Hope this helps for a first approach.
Olivier.
