You can use multiple tabs (add {.tabset} after the header). It's very simple to generate them using r-markdown and they look almost the same as collapsible panel (of course you need to have more than one option).
Not to paste same code multiple times specify code argument in chunk options (code = readLines("code.R")). Or you can have only one panel for code and answer so you wouldn't need external document.
