I think you have a good point, especially since view()
in the tibble package is considered experimental by Müller, et al. Would you be willing to provide a suggested edit (i.e. Pull Request) to the text?
Sounds good, I will do a Pull Request (my first PR, so reading a bit to be sure I do not do something wrong). It seems I need to select or base: main or compare: main, which one is the appropriate choice?
@paulapappalardo thanks for making the edits. Reviewing the changes, it seems that the note about view()
vs View()
may be better placed in the Instructor Notes because the call out box is about read_csv()
. Also (now thinking about it), view()
vs View()
isn't about importing data in R but rather about a "feature" of RStudio. What do you think?
That sounds good! And the instructor can decide if to mention it or at least have it in mind in case anybody asks.
@paulapappalardo Thanks for the contribution!
Hi. I wonder if in the section "Starting with data" it could be useful to mention that we are using view (lowercase v) from the package tibble (under the umbrella of tidyverse), but that View (uppercase v) would also work to view data frames because is part of base R?. We talked earlier in the episode about the functions from specific packages versus the functions that come built into R, so it shouldn't be a new concept. I have always used View and just discovered view myself when looking through the R-ecology-lesson :)
