Include apsrtable (or stargazer) output in an Rmd file

Question

I tried to include the summary of an lm object in an Rmd file, using code like the following but it didn\'t work. Could you help me do that?

```         


        

Answer 1

The $$ syntax only applies to math expressions, and you were trying to put a table in it, which will not work. The apsrtable, as far as I understand, is for LaTeX only, but LaTeX and Markdown are very different -- there is little hope you can redo LaTeX entirely with Markdown. I think people invented the $$ syntax for Markdown due to the fact that it is well supported by MathJax, and also note there are many variants/flavors based on the original Markdown.

At the moment you may consider:

• use the xtable or ascii or R2HTML package to generate HTML tables
• request the package author of apsrtable to support HTML tables
