Is it possible to conditionally evaluate a code chunk and its associated heading using R Markdown and knitr? For example, if eval_cell is TRUE include the chunk and its heading, but don't include either if eval_cell is FALSE.
```{r}
eval_cell = TRUE
```
# Heading (would like to eval only if eval_cell is TRUE)
```{r eval = eval_cell}
summary(cars)
```
You can put the heading in an inline R expression:
```{r}
eval_cell = TRUE
```
`r if (eval_cell) '# Heading (would like to eval only if eval_cell is TRUE)'`
```{r eval = eval_cell}
summary(cars)
```
This will become cumbersome if you have large blocks of text/code that need to be conditionally included, in which case you are recommended to put them in a separate child document, say, child.Rmd:
# Heading (would like to eval only if eval_cell is TRUE)
```{r}
summary(cars)
```
Then in the original (parent) document, you just need
```{r}
eval_cell = TRUE
```
```{r child='child.Rmd', eval=eval_cell}
```
