Learn defensive programming in R to make your code more robust.
In this course, we will delve into the intricacies of writing efficient and effective R code. While writing R scripts may seem straightforward, crafting high-quality R code can be challenging. Our focus will be on defensive programming, a collection of standardized techniques that not only minimize bugs but also facilitate collaborative work within teams. We will explore various strategies to prevent common errors and address the inevitable errors that may arise in our code. Additionally, we will conclude the course by examining the optimal timing for transitioning from a script to a project to a package.
