R packages for me check out
Why have I never seen this website before??
It has a great list of packages and a peer review system.
Maybe I should join … sometime.
I will need to look through their package catelog some more. Here are a few packages that relate to my interests and that I expect to find useful1:
| Package | Author | Description |
|---|---|---|
| bib2df | Philipp Ottolinger | Parse a BibTeX File to a Data Frame (works both ways) |
| getlandsat | Scott Chamberlain | Get Landsat 8 Data from Amazon Public Data Sets |
| gitignore | Philippe Massicotte | Create Useful .gitignore Files for your Project |
| pdftools | Jeroen Ooms | Text Extraction, Rendering and Converting of PDF Documents |
