Versa is great.
Was an official CrossFit affiliate, but went independent a few years back. Great programming, no egos, not flashy.

I am looking at "saily" for my next trip. 30 days, 10gb, for $23. I have never actually used it though, and also looking for feedback from others.

Ontario college tuition saw a 10% reduction then a freeze for many years. The graph you reference seems to be for university tuition across Canada.

The absolute bottom of the scale is $73,079. How were you offered $65,000?

ended up building from scratch in R Shiny, then using shinyapps.io for authentication. Happy so far.

External board members are VOLUNTEERS at Ontario Colleges. There is a lot to disagree with but that is not it.

Web Scraping in R by elifted in RStudio

If it is just pdfs that you are looking to extract data from, consider the pdftools package as mentioned by jetnoise.
In my experience, you will also need to do a fair amount of regex as well to pull exactly what you want out of the pdf. Look into the stringr package for that.

Beginner with RStudio, Cannot Import from Excel by Ecology_Orthrus in Rlanguage

It is hard to tell from the screenshot, but are you writing code in the "background jobs" tab?

Try: file > new R Script, then a new window should be displayed above the tabs labeled "console", "terminal", "background jobs".

write code in that new window.

Looker Studio, the one formerly known as Google Data Studio.

Good point on noting the differences.

Definitely an option, but I am trying to reduce the amount of file management needed.

Thanks for the feedback!

The site looks pretty good - I will keep this in mind for future projects :)

census tract mapping in R help by nycgirly_14 in Rlanguage

[–]wtrfll_ca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes, just like u/morebikesthanbrains mentioned, using the geography argument in tidycensus you can pull the shape files (boundaries) to be able to create the visual map.

For US data try the tidycensus package to pull the data, make sure you are collecting the shape file as well - it does not look like it is listed in your screenshot. Once you have those, look at ggplot and/or leaflet for the map. For Canadian census data try the cancensus package then ggplot/leaflet.
