How many statisticians does it take to split a bill?

Bom blogue, bem disposto aborda diferenças entre estatística e ML

Bom blogue, bem disposto aborda diferenças entre estatística e ML

Some thoughts on the Fall term, now that Spring is well under way [edit: added a few more points]:

  • RMarkdown and knitr are amazing. When I next teach a course using R, my students will be turning in homeworks using these tools: The output immediately shows whether the code runs and what its results are. This is much better than students copying and pasting possibly-broken code and unconnected output into a text file or (gasp) Word document.
  • I’m glad my cohort socializes outside the office, taking each other out for birthday lunches or going to see a Pirates game. Some of the older PhD students are so focused on their thesis work that they don’t take time for a social break, and I’d like to avoid getting stuck in that rut.
    However! Our lunches always lead us back to the age old question: How many statisticians does it take to split a bill? Answer: too long. I threw together a Shiny app, DinneR, to help us answer this question.

Interactive maps with R

Bibliotecas para construir mapas com alguma interação no R

You can make static maps in R relatively well, if you know what packages to use and what to look for, but there isn’t much direct interaction with your graphics. rMaps is a package that helps you create maps that you can mouse over and zoom in to.

Don’t get too excited though. A scan of the docs shows that it’s basically a wrapper around JavaScript libraries Leaflet, DataMaps and Crosslet, so you could learn those directly instead, and you’d be better for it in the long run if you plan to make more maps. But if you’re just working on a one-off or must stay in R because your life depends on, rMaps might be an option.
