Getting Started

A DataCamp course consists of two types of files:

• course.yml, a YAML-formatted file that's prepopulated with some general course information.
• chapterX.md, a markdown file with:
  • a YAML header containing chapter information.
  • markdown chunks representing DataCamp Exercises.

To learn more about the structure of a DataCamp course, check out the documentation.

Every DataCamp exercise consists of different parts, read up about them here. A very important part about DataCamp exercises is to provide automated personalized feedback to students. In R, these so-called Submission Correctness Tests (SCTs) are written with the testwhat package. SCTs for Python exercises are coded up with pythonwhat. Check out the GitHub repositories' wiki pages for more information and examples.
