Very good discussion. I always use the same style for naming functions. I like to have "_" rather than "." so that the auto-complete can work. And one more advantage is when I highlight a function name, R studio can show them all (with ".", R studio cannot recognize them). For organizing package, it will be more convenient as well.

Well you know my opinion 😂 very interesting and nuanced blog post!

Thanks Maëlle!

Great post, Jon. I found an #rstats tweet on my timeline about naming functions which reminded me of this post and that I hadn't finished it last time. Glad I did.

Great post on a meta and content level. Reminded me of a note I took whilst reading Foucault's On the Order of Things a couple days ago*

*Disqus is being a jerk and won't let me upload the picture even though I'm totally logged in. So I uploaded it to imgur https://imgur.com/a/mVkwf

Thanks Mara! Cool quote, and an interesting source too. I'm astonished by the amount of reading you seem to do!

(also, sorry that Disqus is being a jerk)

I tried yelling "I am logged in" at my iPad, but it didn't seem to work!
