R with RStudio forms a great duo for reporting. Thanks to a special source code, a R Markdown file, we combine programming blocks (the R language) with a text (the Markdown language). It is possible to create a report without even seeing the code in the text. As in a show, the entire technical team, remains behind the scenes. Only the results - images, tables, charts and maps - occupy the scene with the text.

Like Word or a PowerPoint presentation, the document includes titles and divisions, bold and italic passages, web links, and more. Unlike Word or a PowerPoint presentation, tables and figures are automated because they are part of the calculations and modeling hidden in the document.

In the process, the data is imported: spreadsheets, CSV, SQL, web, Spark, etc. Just run the analyzes: clean, filter, sort, group, aggregate, select, add, etc. The R language is designed for descriptive statistics analysis and * machine learning * algorithms. The results can also come from other languages including Python or SQL. The big work can be done downstream and the finishing is done in RStudio. Once everything is modeled, transformed or integrated, all that remains is to generate tables and figures to finalize the report. With a stand-alone R Markdown file, automation makes it easy to update or adapt for a new month, for example.

« Mamadou est venu nous aider à réorganiser notre panneau d’arrêt via un outil de rapport, Crystal Reports. Mamadou a réussi avec succès le travail de précision, au pixel près, puisque nous voulions un rapport similaire au design graphique original. Il nous a aidés à découper le projet par cycle et à intégrer le rapport à notre logiciel corporatif. La qualité que nous avons appréciée était le souci du détail et la constance. Mamadou a été très professionnel et connaît plusieurs autres technologies. Merci. »

“Mamadou helped us reorganize our stop panel using a reporting tool, Crystal Reports. He successfully delivered precise, pixel-perfect work, as we needed a report that matched the original graphic design. He helped us break the project down into cycles and integrate the report into our corporate software. What we appreciated most was his attention to detail and consistency. Mamadou was very professional and is knowledgeable in many other technologies. Thank you.”
