Dear all,
sorry if this is a bit on the sidetrack for R-help.
As a regular R user I have developed quite a lot of custom R functions,
to the point of not always remembering what I have already programmed,
where the file is and so on.
I was wondering what other people do in this regards. A basic file with
all your functions, or a custom R package, or directly integrated into a
profile file ??? I'm considering that a blog with tagged posts may be a
good solution (and really good ones could join R-bloggers maybe).
If someone is happy to share what (s)he considers good practice, thanks.
Hi Simon,
This may or may not be good practice, but once I worked out how to make
packages (see any of the tutorials on this), I just made a little
package for each group of functions. Three of them grew up to be
packages on CRAN, so it worked well for me. I think having the functions
segregated into packages with an easy to recognise theme like the
<blatant advertisement> clinsig package </blatant advertisement>, helps
to organize the work for later use.
Jim
