I don’t like carrots but I eat them πŸ₯•

If there is a vegetable that I don’t like as an adult, it has to be carrots. But I still work to include them in my diet, as they are high in fiber, and have many healthy vitamins. I don’t sugar coat them or dip them in anything, I just eat them because they are healthy.

 

R 4.30 Was Released

With R 4.3.0 released on Friday, you can now use an “underscore” with the built-in pipe, like you could use a “period” in maggittr pipe. While there are still some reasons to use maggittr, like T-pipes, assignment pipes and exposition pipes, I’ve never used them and they aren’t exported by default in the tidyverse.

For example, in maggittr you could do:

df %>% inner_join(states, .)

And now with the native pipe you can do the same thing:

df |> inner_join(states, _)

That was a major oversight when the created the native pipe, I’m not sure why it wasn’t originally implemented when 4.0.0 came out but it wasn’t.

Also, you can use _$value to extract something from R:

mtcars |> lm(mpg ~ disp, data = _) |> _$coef

Although, I’m not totally sure why you want to use a pipe like that when you can put the extractor directly on the lm:

mtcars |> lm(mpg ~ disp, data = _)$coef
