This is left over from when we did the demo of how to build the reader.

Could you please restore this file to the version in commit cac7881?

  1. Check that you don't have any uncommitted changes to the file by running:

    git status

    If the file has changes, you can use git stash to temporarily save and remove them (and git stash pop to bring them back later).

  2. Then run (at the top level of the repository):

    git restore -s cac7881 chapters/01_principles.md

  3. Check that this doesn't undo any of your intentional changes (e.g., by running git diff), and if everything looks good:

    git add chapters/01_principles.md
git commit
git push

Thanks, and let me know if anything I wrote doesn't make sense!

If your research is more qualitative in nature than quantitive, the same basic
principles of organization apply. However the overall goal may be to show iterative
analysis, reflection, and ethical managment of sensitive materials rather than rigid
data pipeline processng. For instance, your directory structur might include:
