Two Column layout in R Markdown Beamer

Two Column layout in R Markdown Beamer

Is there any way to break the raw tex passing of pandoc? I like to have a 
two column layout, this is possible using pure latex but it is not possible 
to include R then. The problem seems to be down to pandoc 
https:

. Any solution or work around would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Michaela

Minimal non working example:
## Slide
 \begin{columns}
    \begin{column}{.5\linewidth}
      Nice Plot
    \end{column}
    \begin{column}{.5\linewidth}
```{r, echo=FALSE}
plot(cars)
```
    \end{column}
  \end{columns}

Re: Two Column layout in R Markdown Beamer

Have you tried this approach?
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/pandoc-discuss/3-4Nktneoe8/sI88E2pCnZAJ

In your latex/beamer template preamble,

    \def\begincols{\begin{columns}}
    \def\endcols{\begin{columns}}
    \def\begincol{\begin{column}}
    \def\endcol{\begin{column}}

then:

    ## Slide
    
    \begincols
    
    \begincol
    
    Plot
    
    \endcol
    
    \begincol
    
    R stuff here
    
    \endcol
    
    \endcols

Other option is to use a pandoc Markdown table.
