background

"R Functions and Such" is a collection of R scripts (functions, etc.) to be used in other projects.

Basically, this is for me to keep track of things I don't want to have to find/recreate each time I want to use them.

-[ background ]-

“R Functions and Such” is a repository of R scripts for functions that I’ve found useful and I don’t want to have to find or recreate when/if I need them again. As I work more with R, I will add additional scripts to this repo. Some of these are offshoots of the projects I’m doing for the Data Science Specialization.

There is a blog post about this repository. Please leave any comments there.
