Hi there πŸ‘‹

  • I love making data tools in R
  • I know I ought to blog about my learning but I never get round to it
  • I'm a big fan of functional programming, APIs, markdown, reproducibility...
  • ... and, in theory, test-driven development
  • I have several R projects here in my pinned repos that you can help with if you like!
  • Ask me about: purrr, sf and APIs. And trying to get a proper HTML5 template in RMarkdown.

Advent of Code 2022

Advent of Code is a really fun and pretty challenging programming adventure/game/competition that happens every December.

In 2022 I am back doing it in R. I'd like to try JavaScript again in future. Or perhaps Haskell will be the flavour of the month in December 2023...?

Here's my AoC repository.

I challenged myself to do this in JavaScript rather than R. It was a rather slow process!
