GitHub files

Throughout course creation, you will spend a lot of time visiting your GitHub repo. Most of the files contained in the repo will only be edited from the course editor, but there are a few more files that you will likely be curious about. Think back to the video (or view the slides) about the different files and folders discussed.

In this exercise, you'll use some basic R code to match the GitHub repo file with its purpose in course creation.

Highlight and run the code in lines 2 to print the file_purpose list in the console.
Read the list and match the repo file to its purpose by assigning the file_purpose number to the appropriate variable.
- Use the syntax: file_name <- list[i].
- R uses one-based indexing, so the first element of a list is indexed as list[1].
