Sourcing Code

Exercises

The R script do_addition.R and the Python script do_addition.py in the scripts folder contain a function to perform simple addition. The function takes two numbers as arguments, adds them together, and outputs the result to the console.

1. Add a new code chunk to your manuscript that includes the do_addition function into your Quarto document.
2. Use the do_addition function to add two numbers of your choice to test whether your answer in a was correct!
