  2. 🎉 Excited to announce that typeR is now on CRAN!

    typeR simulates typing animations for R scripts - perfect for live coding demos and presentations.

    Install: install.packages("typeR")
    Docs: fgazzelloni.github.io/typeR/

  3. #Rpackage #qualityanalysis
    New update for R package “resquin” – More functions for better response quality analysis

    The R package “resquin,” short for “response quality indicators,” has been updated and now offers even more options for analyzing and evaluating response quality. The new features are designed to help researchers and data specialists examine their data more accurately and arrive at relevant results more quickly.

  6. One of my New Year's Resolutions is to get into building R packages. I can see plenty docs/webinars for learning how to make them. However, does anyone have favourite open source packages they think show good examples using best practices and/or style in modern R package coding? Big or small, general or niche, just looking for nice code to read 🤓

    "The purpose of volcalc was to transform the process from taking months to gather details for 300 compounds to obtaining information for thousands in a much shorter time." – Kristina Riemer

  8. Bayes' theorem, a key concept in probability theory, is crucial for making informed decisions in uncertain situations. It allows us to update our beliefs based on new evidence.

    This theorem mathematically describes the probability of an event, based on prior knowledge of conditions that might be related to the event.

    The visualization in this post is based on an image from Wikipedia (link: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayes%27).

  9. When the day after your #Rpackage goes live on CRAN, with no promotion whatsoever, Hadley Wickham himself files a GitHub issue with a suggestion 🤓. github.com/e-kotov/rJavaEnv

  10. I switched to #Positron github.com/posit-dev/positron by @Posit for most of my #rstats and #rpackage development activity. I have not touched #RStudio for many weeks. codeium.com/ as AI autocomplete for now, as GitHub Copilot is not working yet in #Positron. Occasional fallback to #VScode for #RemoteSSH work.

  11. The R wrapper for the Python Pdf2docx package offers a very simple API for easily converting your PDF files into DOCX.

    Explore the package here:

  12. I recently came across the raybevel R package by Tyler Morgan-Wall. It's focused on creating 3D bevels and straight skeletons, useful for tasks such as offsetting polygons or generating 3D models of roofs and beveled edges.

    Installation instructions and examples to get started: raybevel.com/

  14. I recently stumbled upon the gt package for R programming 📊✨—a real game-changer for anyone looking to elevate their table game!

    Developed by Richard Iannone and colleagues, it simplifies table creation, supporting a seamless workflow from data frames or tibbles to professional tables.

  15. After making my first simple #Remarkjs #presentation, I think I see the landscape a little clearer:

    👉 @jmlilly's Liminal is a "minor extension" that provides a scientific theme for Remark.js jmlilly.net/talks/liminal-v2/

    👉 @yihui's #Xaringan is an #Rpackage that translates #Rmarkdown into Remark-readable #markdown; using the #RStudio #IDE it supports theming & live previews of your slides slides.yihui.org/xaringan/

    👉 @grrrck's added some serious extra bling to Xaringan pkg.garrickadenbuie.com/xaring

  16. Our PhD student Che-Wei Chang developed the R-package GGoutlieR, which is now peer reviewed and published in JOSS.

    It detects incorrectly assigned outliers or long-distance migrants in geo-genetic data.

  17. New paper on "Modelling animal network data in R using STRAND"

    "#Bayesian approaches to #network data analysis are well suited to resolving known challenges in the animal behaviour literature...to facilitate ease of use, we provide a tutorial for our #Rpackage that allows end users to build complex network analysis models using simple lm-style syntax in base R, simplifying the process of modelling empirical network data."

  18. Last week, CRAN released the version 1.0.1 of "collinear", the R package I wrote during my summer holidays.

    It helps filter out numeric and categorical collinear predictors, and let's you decide in what order of preference these predictors should be removed.

    You can find more info about the package here: blasbenito.github.io/collinear/

    I've also written a post about how multicollinearity can hinder model interpretability: blasbenito.com/post/multicolli

    I hope you enjoy it!
