I was so excited to see the ANES 2024 data released that I wrote a short blog post showing how to get started in #RStats:

Package idea: A community-driven package that defines ... wait for it: community defined generics so we don't step on each other's toes. #rstats

I have often been unhappy that the line type in a #ggplot2 legend is not clearly visible. Today, I found a simple solution: simply use

theme(legend.key.width = unit(1, "cm"))

Replace 1 with any other value that you like (not too small, of course!).

Anyone an idea where I can find the source code of ardata.fr/ggiraph-book/ ? The github link on the website is dead. #ggplot2 #rstats #ggiraph. Thanks!

Has anyone experience submitting non-fully reproducible code to JSS?

I have some code that uses cuda algorithms for which no deterministic variant exists ... #rstats

Better version of the rcdo logo. Now with better blending of the text and the hex bounds.

Again, as someone who dabbles with #rstats, I curse the #ONS and their myriad date formats. An Excel file that does not use a date but a character format. 'Sept' rather than 'Sep' or 'September'...

Now on CRAN, ggdiagram is a #ggplot2 extension that draws diagrams programmatically in #Rstats. Allows for precise control in how objects, labels, and equations are placed in relation to each other.

I had the pleasure of curating this week's #TidyTuesday data about Scottish Munros So the chart just had to be an annotated, snow-capped, density mountain!

TIL: that tempfile() first argument take a pattern and place it in front of the file (why did I just discover that only now...).

This was in the first line of the storr package:

r$> (path <- tempfile("storr_"))
[1] "/tmp/RtmpQD2hP1/storr_581f5723fae77"
