My RMarkdown document has code chunks that generate multiple figures or tables from within one chunk. For instance, it loops through a bunch of variables to generate summary statistics tables for each variable. The problem is that the numbering of these figures/tables is often wrong when I try to generate a HTML document; this problem doesn't happen when I compile a PDF. The problem is that all the tables generated from the same chunk would get the same table number.
Here is an example:
---
title: "Testing Section Numbers"
author: "Authors"
date: "January 2019"
output:
bookdown::gitbook:
number_sections: yes
editor_options:
chunk_output_type: console

plot(pressure)
plot(iris)
```
```{r pressure2, echo=FALSE}
library(knitr)
kable(pressure, caption = "My first table")
kable(pressure, caption = "My second table")
```
