Day 1 - Practical Session

Pick one

Work on an existing R project and make it more reproducible, ideas include:

• comment your code
• include sessionInfo()
• try out the {renv} package
• organize your files in a consistent structure
• send your code to your neighbour, see if they can understand it, run it?

Start a new R project

• Get some data to work with - My suggestion: tidytuesday squirrel data
• Build an .rmd / .qmd document (your choice)
• Do some data exploration (cleaning, plotting, …)
• Add some tabbed content
• try out the {renv} package
• …

Get the squirrel data like this

squirrel_data <- readr::read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rfordatascience/tidytuesday/master/data/2023/2023-05-23/squirrel_data.csv')
