{purrr} has some lesser known functions that make handling of failing function calls easier: safely, quietly, possibly: #rstats

Wrap a function to capture errors — safely
Creates a modified version of .f that always succeeds. It returns a list with components result and error. If the function succeeds, result contains the returned value and error is NULL. If an error occurred, error is an error object and result is either NULL or otherwise.

Nord-Stream-Sabotage: Entscheidung über Auslieferung von Verdächtigem vertagt
Drei Jahre nach den Anschlägen auf die Nord-Stream-Gaspipelines in der Ostsee ist die Entscheidung über die Auslieferung eines Tatverdächtigen aus Italien an Deutschland vertagt worden. Ein Berufungsgericht in Bologna kam nach stundenlangen Beratungen noch zu keinem Ergebnis, wie der Verteidiger des Ukrainers der Nachricht…

Tidy Modeling with R: #rstats #machinelearning

Tidy Modeling with R
The tidymodels framework is a collection of R packages for modeling and machine learning using tidyverse principles. This book provides a thorough introduction to how to use tidymodels, and an outline of good methodology and statistical practice for phases of the modeling process.

Im using case_when() quite a lot, case_match() is new to me: #rstats

A general vectorised switch() — case_match
This function allows you to vectorise multiple switch() statements. Each case is evaluated sequentially and the first match for each element determines the corresponding value in the output vector. If no cases match, the .default is used. case_match() is an R equivalent of the SQL "simple" CASE WHEN statement. Connection to case_when() While case_when() uses logical expressions on the left-hand side of the formula, case_match() uses values to match against .x with. The following two statement…

Polars is a lightning fast DataFrame library/in-memory query engine with parallel execution and cache efficiency. And now you can use is with the tidyverse syntax: #rstats

More Efficient Tidyverse Code, Using Polars in the Background
Polars is a cross-language tool for manipulating very large data. However, one drawback is that the R implementation has a syntax that will look odd to many R users who are not used to Python syntax. The objective of tidypolars is to improve the ease-of-use of Polars in R by providing tidyverse syntax to polars.
