I discovered this channel looking for answers related to R and RStudio questions I had. I want to thank you for the videos. Great explanations, direct and clear. Thanks!
Thanks for the video! Very informative - I'm definitely going to be coming back for more videos. Quick question @15:13 - "I'm only interested in sampling the same number of genomes 100 times... *so threshold = 3*" Why is the threshold 3 here? Is it because we're only sampling 3 genomes?
Thanks for watching! It's been a while since I did this, but looking back at the code quickly, I think I was drawing 3 genomes from each species 100 times
Why does your voice sound funny in this episode? I'm guessing microphone or video processing, or something like that. Or did you have a cold? Ha ha. Anyway, I LOVE your content!!! You have so many videos, surely you can't look through all the comments on all of your videos. That would be a FT job (at least it seems that way). Anyhoo. I took both your online (zoom) MinimalR and mothur workshops, and they have helped so much, as well as your Code Club videos. Thanks again, Pat! Edit on comment: seems like your voice sounded different more in the first 5 minutes of the video. Or maybe I have recently ingested too much EtOH, as an ingredient in double IPAs. Ha! Anyway, your videos are so helpful, they are a positive contribution to reproducible science, insights into Microbiology, Microbiomes, and statistical analyses in general. Also a boon to using R for significant biological research. I better quit before the lauding seems more like exaggerated adulation.
Great video! What if some of the columns can't be coerced to numeric value? Let say I am performing iterative analysis through a large database in which several variables can't be calculated, but however, I am more interested in running the whole database than picking one by one the variables
If your function needs numeric values, then I'd suggest only running the map functions on those columns that are numeric. Alternatively, you could use pivot_longer to put those columns into a single column, then using nest and map with mutate. I have another episode that shows how to do this here: ruclips.net/video/lhst1oc9mKQ/видео.html
@@Riffomonas if I have two similar graphs done by two independent programmers, how do I compare them programmatically to see if there are differences? For example, two scatter plots
Yeah it allows you to modify a variable so that it remains changed outside of a function even if you don’t return that variable. This is generally seen as a very bad idea

Wonderful - thanks!

Great thanks so much. Keep up the good work
Thanks! 🤓
Great video and explanation!
Hi Ankit - Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching and please be sure to spread the word :)

Hi can you do a episode to compare two graphs for the purpose of validation?
Hmmm maybe but I’m not sure what you mean. Do you have an example?

with so many YT channels asking me to "SMASH THE LIKE BUTTON" it has removed my ability to do so on this video.
HA! Well, just be sure to keep coming back for more :)
Happy birthday
HAH! Thanks 😊
Pat,
This might sound like an out of place comment but have you heard of something called a "super assignment operator" designed by
Yeah it allows you to modify a variable so that it remains changed outside of a function even if you don’t return that variable. This is generally seen as a very bad idea
Aha! Basically defining a local variable as global. I know this is considered bad form in python (probably all languages) in general.
