-Adding parameter definitions to a {{< meta document >}} works differently depending on whether you are using the [Jupyter](https://jupyter.org) or [Knitr](https://yihui.name/knitr) engine.

+### Julia

+For the Julia engine, parameters are defined via the `params` YAML option.

+``` yaml

+engine: julia
+params:

+  ratio: 0.1

+Each key is evaluated as a constant and can be accessed under that name.
+Note that this means only keys that are valid Julia variable names are allowed.
+For example, `some_key` is valid while `some-key` isn't, even though the latter is a valid YAML key.

 ## Rendering
 
 To render using different parameters you can pass them on the command line using the `-P` flag (this works for both `.ipynb` or `.qmd` files):
