R code in Sweave

Question

I have a scientific paper under review, and a referee asked for my R code to be provided as a Sweave document. I've never heard of Sweave before, do you know what's the better way to do it?

Thanks a lot :-)

Answer 1

This seems a very unusual request in my opinion. I can understand a referee expecting you to provide reproducible code, but requiring a specific format is over-the-top. I would respond by providing your code. Sweave is not standard practice for academic journals.
