Using base R and testthat to calculate probabilities (CC271)

[@ThroughEyes8411]

Awesome introduction to R package development from the researcher's/R user's perspective not from a software developer! I have also developed an R package for my team and I've made tons of similar mistakes that you showed here. I'm sure this test-driven approach is super insightful for those who're interested in building R packages. Looking forward to the next episode!

Thanks!

Just wanted to say Thank You for these videos. I have thought about making an R package for some time, but it's always intimidated me too much. Maybe I'll give it a try.

[@Riffomonas]

My pleasure - thanks! I’m afraid it’s about to get into the weeds but that’s all part of the process

I must admit, I feel stupid going back in forth to understand what you are cooking there. All your engineering skills you show off here! well done :D

[@Riffomonas]

Sorry! It gets a little complicated. There's a fair amount of engineering still to come. Let me know if you have any specific questions along the way

You can multithread your code if you need more performance out of your fuctions, or when processing large data sets. I have done this a few times with future + future.apply packages.

Definitely - I have a couple of previous episodes using furrr. Thanks for watching!
