RLadies Chicago is privileged to welcome Chief Scientist at RStudio, author of ggplot2 and many much of the tidyverse, and perhaps the most prolific R developer of our time: Hadley Wickham.
Hadley will speak about tidy evaluation principles before fielding questions from the audience. Abstract below:
Tidy evaluation is a new framework for non-standard evaluation that
will be used throughout tidyverse. In this talk, I'll introduce you to
the problem that tidy eval solves, illustrated with examples of the
various approaches used in R. I'll then explain the most important
components so that you can start writing your own functions instead of
copying and pasting tidyr and dplyr code.
