1.3 could probably be simplified

carriewright11 commented 1 month ago

yeah people got confused if they had tried one column and then it no longer worked to rename it again when they had more of the code. Maybe we just give them the code? or we could at least add troubleshooting tips though, also for 1.4 ... could add more to the hint about starts_with() and 1.6 quotes

avahoffman commented 1 month ago

also inconsistencies in the quotation marks for pivoting column names... what the heck

underscore in summary missing for antijoin

yeah - we could point people to the guide/walk people through the guide

part 2 hint for 2.4 "index" confused some people maybe say column or variable instead... could also suggest the count function which would be a bit simpler

The issue is that I SWEAR it didn't used to work without quotes and now it does. So inconsistent and my major gripe with tidyverse :P

I'm not 100% sure where the biggest sticking points for the tidyverse quotations stuff. (but also totally agreed its a very annoying and inconsistent thing to teach!) But filing a PR and happy to add stuff if there's a strategy we want to use.
