introduce 'going further' boxes? #3

Open roblanf opened 3 years ago

I love these teaching materials.

One thing I wonder is whether you'd be interested in some pull requests that include boxes on 'going further'. I.e. things that can reliably be skipped by those trying to get through the basics, but could be of interest to those interested in a specific point.

Two examples that could apply to https://github.com/riffomonas/generalR/blob/master/05_session.md.

  1. On the heatmap, it would be simple to add a scale_color_viridis() to the plot, and a link to this video which explains to those who are sufficiently nerdy (πŸ‘‹) why some colour schemes are better than others.

  2. On the map, one could fairly easily add a 'going further' box with code to make an animation with gganimate. Again, nothing fancy but (following the riffomonas teaching philosophy) something that just points out a possibility and a starting point for messing with code.

If this is of interest, I'm happy to put in a pull request.
