This repository contains my solutions to the problems found in Hadley Wickham's textbook Advanced R.
Advanced R has influenced me like few other books. A few months after I began learning R, I stumbled across it while trying to learn how tidy evaluation worked. I read the relevant chapters and started working through the exercises, learning much but making no effort to preserve my work. Since then, I've returned to it intermittently, sometimes as an aid when a problem stymied me, sometimes simply to learn about an aspect of the language I knew little about. There are many free R textbooks available, but none has the same combination of clear exposition, useful examples, and interesting exercises. Reading Advanced R, more than anything else, is the reason I consider R my favorite language, warts and all; it demonstrates exactly what makes R special.
Of course, you can't learn nearly as much merely reading as you can solving problems. In that spirit, this repository consists of R Markdown files containing my answers to Advanced R's many exercises. The few times I checked the solutions manual to confirm an answer, I made a note of it.
