Write your own! On having better habits as an R programmer
I contribute responses to Stack Overflow pretty frequently. I like answering well-written questions and enjoy that it keeps my skills sharp. However, one area of annoyance for me on Stack Overflow is that many answers start with something like: “You can do this using the <package name> package” - even when the task at hand can be handled in base R. For many posters, that’s probably not a big deal, but I find myself getting those answers occasionally on my questions, even when I explicitly ask for base R solutions.
