Trivial but annoying issue with Rmarkdown. I am trying to display landscape and portrait pages within the same pdf document from Rmarkdown.
I searched different solutions and decided to stick to the latex option (R chunk inside LaTeX in an rmarkdown document). However, even with that option I cannot manage to put R code within latex commands.

title: ""
header-includes:
- \usepackage{lscape}
- \newcommand{\blandscape}{\begin{landscape}}
- \newcommand{\elandscape}{\end{landscape}}
output: pdf_document
---
\newpage
\blandscape
```{r}
plot(1,1)
```
\elandscape
\newpage
More portrait
```{r}
summary(cars)
```
I got an error:
output file: hello.knit.md
! LaTeX Error: \begin{landscape} on input line 113 ended by \end{document}.
Error: LaTeX failed to compile hello.tex. See https://yihui.org/tinytex/r/#debugging for debugging tips. See hello.log for more info.
Execution halted
while the following code is working:

title: ""
header-includes:
- \usepackage{lscape}
- \newcommand{\blandscape}{\begin{landscape}}
- \newcommand{\elandscape}{\end{landscape}}
output: pdf_document
---
\newpage
\blandscape
```{r}
1+1
```
\elandscape
\newpage
More portrait
```{r}
summary(cars)
```
I have no idea why :D
Does someone have one ?
Instead of defining new commands, you can directly use the underlying commands of an environment:
---
title: ""
header-includes:
- \usepackage{lscape}
output: pdf_document
---
\newpage
\landscape
```{r}
plot(1,1)
```
\endlandscape
\newpage
More portrait
```{r}
summary(cars)
```
