Testing Julia Weave with the Rust Blog
Testing Julia First we can load some julia packages: using Plots using Distributions 2+2 4 The we can use them: mydist = Normal(10,1) plot(rand(mydist, 1000))

Testing the use of quarto to generate markdown
Introduction Will this work? Some R hist(rnorm(1000), breaks = 30, main = "A histogram!") We’ll try a different bit of code here: plot(ecdf(rnorm(1000))) Let’s try LaTeX $$ \Sigma _ {n=i}^{\infty}...
