Details

presentTalk is a tool that facilitates lectures and workshops in R. The function allows the presenter to show code snippets alongside their execution, making use of R's graphical capabilities. When presentTalk is called, a graphical user interface (GUI) is launched that allows the user to control the flow of the talk (e.g., switching between talks or skipping to various sections of a talk.

The automatic control buttons allow the user to move forward or backward in the talk. The GO button moves forward one tag segment, the Back button moves back to the previous tag segment. The blue buttons allow movement among sections - Start to the first section of the talk, Prev to the previous section, Curr to the start of the current section, and Next to the next section.

In addition to the automatic menu items, a user can add buttons to the GUI that accomplish similar purposes.

Note

The use of chunk in the R code is equivalent to the use of segment in the documentation.
