> **Ashutosh Nandeshwar** (@n_ashutosh; 4/1): Because of @hadleywickham's work on #ggplot, #dplyr, #stringr, and many other packages, @xieyihui' amazing work on #knitr and #bookdown, and @rstudio's fantastic IDE, @xdanalysis and I finished our #rstats book pretty fast.

> **Dick Batka** (@Doctor_Dick_MD; 1/1): @xieyihui Loving all your #rstats packages! Any way to get #TufteHandout into a HTML Presentation with #knitr and #rmarkdown ?? (#slidify did not work)  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/974336508114108417)

> **Mauro Lepore** (@mauro_lepore; 1/0): @CalPolyProf @dataandme @kierisi @ForestGEO Let me know if options() fixes your problem. I suspect that you'll need to specifically change knitr options. For example, to print 10 rows:

knitr::opts_chunk$set(rows.print = 10)  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/974302279909208064)
