What is this? This is function plays a rap adlib when it is called. It is useful if you have a script that takes a while to run, and want to be notified when it is finished. The package currently includes 52 different sounds from 34 artists, the majority of which are pulled from The Rap Board by LP Riel. I use it when I have long scripts to run and I want to feel amused when they are ready hahha

What is this? Excerpt from repo: This repository contains a Jupyter notebook file which walks you through the basics of using notebooks and RStats for reproducible data analysis. It starts with a general guide to the notebook format and how to install the necessary software. Then it goes through an example using R to load data, filter missing values, create graphs and run statistical tests.

This course teaches how to use the shinydashboard R package. To get the most out of this course, open an R Session and follow the lessons. In each lesson you will see the shell of some code to copy into your R Session and edit to complete the tasks. At the end of each chapter is an application with the full solutions. By the end you should be able to build a simple dynamic dashboard!

What is this? Excerpt from site: R uses factors to handle categorical variables, variables that have a fixed and known set of possible values. Factors are also helpful for reordering character vectors to improve display. The goal of the forcats package is to provide a suite of tools that solve common problems with factors, including changing the order of levels or the values.

Excerpt from ebook: This book serves as an introduction of text mining using the tidytext package and other tidy tools in R. The functions provided by the tidytext package are relatively simple; what is important are the possible applications. Thus, this book provides compelling examples of real text mining problems.

What is this? Excerpt from e-book: Packages are the fundamental units of reproducible R code. They include reusable R functions, the documentation that describes how to use them, and sample data. In this book you’ll learn how to turn your code into packages that others can easily download and use. Writing a package can seem overwhelming at first. So start with the basics and improve it over time. It doesn’t matter if your first version isn’t perfect as long as the next version is better.

What is this? Excerpt from blog: This tutorial is not about making a beautiful, perfect R package. This tutorial is about creating a bare-minimum R package so that you don’t have to keep thinking to yourself, “I really should just make an R package with these functions so I don’t have to keep copy/pasting them like a goddamn luddite.” Seriously, it doesn’t have to be about sharing your code (although that is an added benefit!). It is about saving yourself time. (n.b. this is my attitude about all reproducibility.)
