18 Language for publications
18.1 ⭐️Overview
This chapter is about language I often need to use and adapt for peer reviewed publications.
18.4 Statistical software
In manuscripts, I often want to say something about the software I used to conduct the statistical analyses. Here is an example.
18.4.1 R
Statistical analyses were conducted using R version 4.1.0 (R Core Team, 2021) in RStudio version 1.4.1717 (RStudio Team, 2021) with the following packages: tidyverse (Wickham et al., 2019), freqtables (Cannell, 2020), meantables (Cannell, 2020).
The functions below can be used to get citations and version numbers.
## To cite R in publications use:
##
## R Core Team (2024). _R: A Language and Environment for Statistical
## Computing_. R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria.
## <https://www.R-project.org/>.
##
## A BibTeX entry for LaTeX users is
##
## @Manual{,
## title = {R: A Language and Environment for Statistical Computing},
## author = {{R Core Team}},
## organization = {R Foundation for Statistical Computing},
## address = {Vienna, Austria},
## year = {2024},
## url = {https://www.R-project.org/},
## }
##
## We have invested a lot of time and effort in creating R, please cite it
## when using it for data analysis. See also 'citation("pkgname")' for
## citing R packages.## [1] "R version 4.4.0 (2024-04-24)"# Won't run when I build book, but this is how you get the RStudio version number
