The count of contributions (summary of Pull Requests, opened issues and commits) to public repos at GitHub.com from Wed, 21 Sep 2022 till Thu, 21 Sep 2023.
Only first 1000 GitHub users according to the count of followers are taken. This is because of limitations of GitHub search. Sorting algo in pseudocode:
githubUsers
.filter(user => user.followers > 1000)
Many years ago, I was introduced to R by Cam Webb . At the time, his website contained a list of common data manipulations (original here). This list dated from Cam's early experience with R, and contained the R-help mailing list responses to a series of data manipulations. For a long time, I kept this file as a handy reference. I printed it out. I recommended it to friends.
Now I have been using R for years, and the state of the art has advanced considerably. Particulary, Hadley Wickham's reshape2 and dplyr packages have transformed the way most useRs manipulate their data. I decided that it would be interesting to revisit my favourite resource and try my hand at solving these problems with tools from these two packages.
library(reshape2)
library(dplyr)
