  • I tend to think that literate programming has a different goal: generating reports with dynamic content. However, my computation takes several hours and therefore I want to keep it separated from the LaTeX compilation process. I could use quarto/knitr to include the results (see my own answer above), but I am a bit unsure if this is the best solution. Automatically including end results in LaTeX (e.g. overleaf) is something almost every scientist should do on a daily base, but all solution seem to be pretty complicated too me compared to the simplicity of the task itself.

  • @lumbric The goal is the same. In short, make it easier, faster a better. Dynamics reports were also designed for reproducibility and avoid the tedious and dangerous copy & paste. When the long render-time is a problem due to intensive R calculus, you can enable the Knitr cache at the R chunk level or at the project level using standard YAML options, or temporarily disable or freeze R execution when working exclusively with text, among some other alternatives. More about this here. Commented Jan 18, 2024 at 18:21
