Can't knit RMarkdown

[shaf]

I've been trying to knit my RMarkdown but I'm at wits' end as to why it doesn't work. Hoping that someone could help me make sense of the error message and how to solve it.

I'm using Macbook if it adds more context to this problem.

This is the error message:

Can you give us a minimal code example that produces this error?

I added a few text in the standard RMarkdown file and when I knit it, the error message appears on my console.

R Markdown

This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com.

When you click the Knit button a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:

Write text

summary(cars)

Including Plots

You can also embed plots, for example:

^ It looks find here but when I tried to knit or switch to 'Visual', there's an error message

When you switch to visual, adding chunks is done via insert menu.
I had the same problem when I tried to add my own chunks.
