Sounds like a plan! Make sure you put each function in R/ so they're easy to re-use. Question: how do you expect plot_histogram() and refine_plot() to fit together? Is the output of plot_histogram() the input to refine_plot()?

We're working on developing each of the functions with an API from the documentation track to go with it to explain how each one combines with the others

I guess we were thinking that plot_histogram() would make just the default histogram plot, while refine_plot() would be used to add formatting (e.g. axis labels, colors, scale axes, etc.). So the output of plot_histogram() as well as any additional user options get passed to refine_plot(). This will hopefully allow us to easily change formatting for different plots.

Gotcha. Just a warning, adding elements/styles to base R plots can be really tricky, so I would suggest going with ggplot. You should also familiarize yourself with the differences between + and %+% (https://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/reference/gg-add.html)
