Parallelize RDS compression/decompression to improve serialization performance in R
# The functions below use parallelized versions of gzip, xz, and bzip2 to
# improve compression/decompression performance of RDS serialization in R.
# Each function searches for the appropriate program (based on the required
# compression format) and if found, offloads the compression handling to the
# external program and therefore leaves R free to do the data import/export.
# The two main functions (saveRDS and readRDS) mask R's native read and write
# functions. The functions have been only tested on macOS, but they must work
# on any Linux/Unix.
#
# Requires the following packages: pxz, pbzip2, and pigz.

All about that Bayes

Because you know I'm all about that Bayes,
'Bout that Bayes, low frequentist
I'm all 'bout that Bayes, 'bout that Bayes, low frequentist
I'm all 'bout that Bayes, 'bout that Bayes, low frequentist
I'm all 'bout that Bayes, 'bout that Bayes

Yeah it's pretty clear I can't count to two
But I can calculate odds like I'm supposed to do

Cause I got priors that beat your stats to the chase

How to read and write PNG file using libpng. Covers trivial method calls like png_set_filler.
/*
* A simple libpng example program
* http://zarb.org/~gc/html/libpng.html
*
* Modified by Yoshimasa Niwa to make it much simpler
* and support all defined color_type.
*
* To build, use the next instruction on OS X.
* $ brew install libpng
* $ clang -lz -lpng16 libpng_test.c

; The clojure reader assumes that the first thing is a

Convert values between RGB hex codes and xterm-256 color codes.

""" Convert values between RGB hex codes and xterm-256 color codes.
Nice long listing of all 256 colors and their codes. Useful for
developing console color themes, or even script output schemes.
