Quotes of the Week

Have you written any short #rstats functions to reduce duplication in your plotting code? e.g.

histogram <- function(df, var, binwidth) {
df |>
ggplot(aes()) +
geom_histogram(binwidth = binwidth)
}

I'm looking for inspiration for examples for R4DS

Really happy with this: have just reproduced the entirety of Geocomputation with R inside a 'devcontainer' with VS Code. It works 🎉
A small step on the #geocompr journey, a giant leap for reproducibility + accessibility! #RSpatial #DataScience pic.twitter.com/NOA4grh7X8

Do all #rstats folks do this? I have a presentation due Monday. I could make my maps in Q and slides in PPT, but instead I am using it as an opportunity to try #quartopub slides and try out new (to me) mapping 📦s. The learning curve involved in reproducible research is... pic.twitter.com/swh0CwEHBd
