如何在R-studio中编织希腊符号以生成pdf

Question

我正在与R studio markdown和knitr合作,这些都很棒.

我似乎无法将希腊符号编织成pdf.

相同的Rmd文件:

---
title: "Untitled"
author: "Hugo Koopmans"
date: "11-01-2015"
output: pdf_document

Test Greek symbol
----------------

P-value
In statistics, the p-value is a function of the observed sample results (a statistic) that is used for testing a statistical hypothesis. Before performing the test a threshold value is chosen, called the significance level of the test, traditionally 5% or 1% [1] and denoted as ?. If the p-value is equal or smaller than the significance level (\alpha)

现在我在linx mint 17 texlive 2013 Rstudio版本0.98.1062

结果:

Try running pandoc with --latex-engine=xelatex.
pandoc: Error producing PDF from TeX source
Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 43

结果是pandoc抱怨alpha符号.所以产生的乳胶似乎无法处理这个符号......

我希望让R studio能够正确处理这个问题,而无需手动更改tex文件...理想情况下......

有小费吗？

对于Rmarkdown中的希腊符号,您可以使用内联公式$ ... $,即两个$符号.

试试这个:

If the p-value is equal or smaller than the significance level $\alpha$
