Purrr vs Plyr #4

Open vmikk opened 6 years ago

vmikk commented 6 years ago

Should we switch from plyr to purrr? Check also multidplyr (a backend for dplyr) to parallelize the code.

see the comprehensive tutorial on this topic by Jenny Bryan and plyrToDplyr side-by-side examples.

There is another option - furrr. The goal of furrr is to simplify the combination of purrr’s family of mapping functions and future’s parallel processing capabilities.
