Dear all:

This is the thread of our first assignment. As discussed in class yesterday, I want you to do the following:

This thread should be used to discuss topics related to this assignment. In particular, please indicate here when you need extensions in the development environment (e.g., by installing new packages). Ideally, you can do so by also generating a pull request that updates the Dockerfile. This way we can maintain a common development environment and the others can benefit from your ideas.

Have fun! Joachim

Dear all, I wanted to let you know that I extended our development enviornment for the first assignment by the packages "gganimate" and "gifski" that helped me to create my GIF.

These links gave me a first idea how to use the packages:

I will try to create a pull request to updates the Dockerfile, but in case I will not succeed, you have the information here :) Best wishes from Toulouse! Simone

Thanks Simon for sharing the info!

I have also added two R packages: wbstats (for extracting data from world bank database) and magick (for making gif) to the original dockerfile.

The reference websites are:

I will make a pull request incorporating these two packages in our dockerfile soon.

Dear All,

I used the "WBI" package for access to the worldbank data but have not managed to commit it.

Somehow my repo in github isnt synced but my sposm file on my computer is. I used the instructions on how to keep the forked repo in sync. Therefore I am not sure if and how I can make a pull request to update the docker file.

NDelventhal commented 5 years ago

Hi Paul, Do you mean the "WDI" package by any chance (also first result when searching for WBI package on Google)? Further, R throws out an error, when trying to install WBI. If WDI was meant it will be listed in case my pull request goes through.

@joachim-gassen You wrote you'd like to get some feedback on the GIFs. I like most the one that's titled 'GDP income OECD vs Africa' because for me it effectively communicates the matter. I also gave feedback by posting two emojis to that GIF. Whoever that was, well done (at least from my PoV)! :-)

fengzhi22 commented 5 years ago

@joachim-gassen Just wanted to make sure that you have finished uploading all of our works?

I like the U.S. v.s. China trade balance gif most. Besides that the message transmitted by the gif is simple, clear and powerful, it also relates to the current hotspot issue of U.S. — China trade war. I also posted a like emoji on that gif. Good job!

p.s. Thanks @joachim-gassen for providing valuable feedback suggestions on improving our gifs.
