In the interests of making this community home for those of us who are reddit refugees, let’s go ahead and introduce ourselves.
Some suggested things to comment on/include in your introduction:
- Tidyverse, base, or data.table?
- Are you primarily a user, a developer, or in between?
- How long have you been using R?
- What other languages do you use?
- What do you use R for? Statistics? generative art? data wrangling?
- Are you using R primarily for work, fun, hobbies, or something else?
- Are you a hex sticker collector? Why or why not?
- Where are you on the data engineering <----> pure statistics continuum?
- What’s your favorite obscure package?
Kia ora! I’m a Postdoc in Social Science in NZ. I’ve been using R for about 6 years, mostly for my research work (usually survey analysis).
I’ve been programming almost since I could read, so have used many languages over the years (Perl was my #1 language for a long time).
I mostly do things in Tidyverse, but pretty agnostic about that.
Look forward to chatting with others on here!
