In combination with the above comment; read the instructions for creating a PDF version of this book by Brett Klamer who notes that you need an older version of the bookdown
library which he hosts at GitHub and can be installed with devtools::install_github(c("bklamer/olderbookdown"))
, otherwise the embed_png
function is not found.

thanks @cszang for this. please note there is a typo @ line 23. it should read "Functionals.md" instead of "Functions.md". as it is, the chapter on Functions is included twice
