Contributing

An advantage of an Open Educational Resource compared to traditional publishing (besides it being free!) is that it is a live, ongoing project, for as long as anyone cares to keep it alive. If you are using this resource, I would encourage you to contribute to help me improve it, by:

  • suggesting improvements to the text, e.g. clarifying unclear sentences, fixing typos (see guidance from Yihui Xie);
  • proposing changes to the code, e.g. to do things in a more efficient way.

Doing this is as easy as editing a wiki page; use the Edit button in the toolbar to make a pull request (you need to have a GitHub account and be able to fork the repository):

EDIT ME

In addition, please feel free to make requests for features or to develop content (see the project’s issue tracker).
