    • to record which files are inputs vs. intermediates vs. outputs
    • to capture how scripts and commands convert inputs to outputs
    • to re-run parts of an analysis that are out-of-date
  • The intersection of R and make, i.e. how to
    • run snippets of R code
    • run an entire R script
