Tardy Tuesdays

Introduction

For the last couple of years, I’ve run an informal weekly R training session to support people who want to develop and maintain their R skills in matters of data tidying and analysis. By default the sessions are based around the weekly TidyTuesday data challenges developed to support people using R through the tidyverse paradigm promoted in R for Data Science. Each week, TidyTuesday makes a new open source dataset available; we give ourselves one hour, with no preparation, to see what we can learn from the data.

Because, due to scheduling conflicts, Tuesdays tend to be especially busy, the sessions actually take place first thing on Wednesday mornings. Hence, Tardy Tuesdays! The scripts developed since I’ve been using Quarto for blogging, with attendees listed as authors (generally in alphabetical order) are shown below:
