What does this mean?

If you have source files that require output and figures to be generated (e.g. R Markdown), then it is important to make sure the generated figures and output are reproducible.

This output provides a way for you to inspect the output in a diff-friendly manner so that it's easy to see the changes that occur due to new software versions or randomisation.

@nickyjgarland wrote this episode for quarto per #136, can you review?

[nickyjgarland]

Small addition could be referencing a markdown guide (e.g. https://www.markdownguide.org/ - for further information), as there doesn't appear to be anything Carpentries related we could link to.

[nickyjgarland]

Looks great and integrates well into the existing lesson. Added a small comment about potentially pointing towards some markdown resources, as the lesson doesn't specifically cover md.

Another improvement could be to add some Quarto specific resources into R Resources section

Suggestions:
Comprehensive guide to using Quarto
Quarto section in 'R for Data Science'
