2.R-Programming Blog
I am repurposing my Blog from ADV stats for this class, as I already own the domain, and so I can reference past Stats work easily. Unfortunately I cannot change the domain, but I did change the blog title to reflect its multiuse now

3.Install R Studio
R Studio is successfully installed 🙂

4.Ratloff Chapters 1-2 (what is vector etc) and Wickham 1-2 

Things I learned:

• That you can use R without RStudio, and that RStudio functions as a GUI. Also, that other GUI programs exist (Technically IDEs).
• You can run R by just clicking on the R icon – this opens a window. Very Cool! I hadn’t know you could run R without a IDE/GUI.
• Batch R is also interesting! Another thing I wasn’t aware R could do
• R allows you to abbreviate True and False as T and F
• You can create vectors by simply typing #:# into the console. This is how the line for(i in length:(n)) {} works!
• ?Syntax will give you operator precedence lists for R
• the devtools package assists in package development
• I’ve always wondered how you go about making packages! The Wickham Guide is such a fantastic roadmap!
