Thank you @bgreenwell8 -- but credit where credit is due!
This is co-written with @ilustat as a variation on his earlier 'gsir' and best seen side-by-side as comparison.
Choice of tools is a very good thing, never-ending debates notwithstanding.

This Getting Started in R guide by @eddelbuettel is pretty good and shouldn’t be overwhelming:

You may have been thinking of the 'curlies versus parens versus ...' example computing 1/x different ways which I used a few times in Rcpp tutorials.
It goes back, if memory serves, to Christian Robert.
I can dig up a reference if someone truly cares.

Sisyphus peered into the mist
A stone's throw from the precipice, paused
Did he jump or did he fall as he gazed into the maw of the morning mist?
Did he raise both fists and say, "To hell with this" and just let the rock roll?
@andrewbird, Sisyphus

Website is a "side-effect", I consume the info I generate via subscriptions to the RSS feed and to @CRANberriesFeed tweets.
ChangeLog and NEWS pointers would have been provided from day if we had canonical locations for them. But we don't.

Congrats on another @QuantLib release!
And as we usually do, package and shipped to @Debian as a source package---and this time also sent to my @Ubuntu PPA for a 20.04 "focal" build.

#QuantLib 1.19 was released today. Thanks to all contributors!
Get it at <quantlib.org/download.shtml>. List of changes at <quantlib.org/reference/histo…>.

And when I write 1.4.165 I mean 1.4.615.
Interestingly, works the same in @RStudio Server here seen in Chrome on my same machine.
Now, the question we all have is: How many source panes will @robjhyndman span over his two *much* fancier and higher-res monitors?

I have decided to give back to my #Rstats community.
All packages uses snake_case notation and two-space indents will be repaired with doubled spaces and proper camelCase. I am only doing a maximum of 50 packages.

Enjoy!
