I'm trying to style a doc written in rmarkdown but don't seem to be able to find much guidance. I require numbered paragraphs that follow numbered heading level 1. But I also need heading levels 2 through 5 to attract no numbers. For example:
1 Heading 1
1.1 blah blah
1.2 blah blah
Heading 2
1.3 blah blah
2 Heading 1
2.1 blah blah
If you do not want a certain heading to be numbered, you can add {-} after the heading, e.g.,
# Preface {-}
I don't think you're writing a book, per se, but many of the same ideas apply. See also the Section numbering portion of the R Markdown HTML Documents guide:
