RMarkdown: How to change headline in table of contents in R Markdown?

Question

When I\'m using the toc: yes command, the document contains \"Content\" as the headline of the table of contents. Due to the fact that I want to write this document

Answer 1

You can also make use of babel simply specifying in the YAML header the "lang" field. For example:

---
lang: de-DE
title: "Ausgefallener Titel"
toc: 1
---

I.e., you can use the "lang" field and specify your desired language-and-country code. For example, de-DE, en-US, etc. (Of course, the corresponding babel package for that language should be installed, or you'll get an error).
