Some people have analysed the output from `history()` (also in a file) that way to see which #Rstats functions they hit more / most.
As for your NA question: It depends. But there is an entire CRAN Task View on missing data and its treatment:

See dang::isConnected() which I initially wrote for another package (maybe RPushBullet? Maybe rfoas?). I basically wrap try() around a url() call and catch the error, if any. Only base #rstats

Thanks, and nice to meet you :)
The toml++ library is fabulous, and your documentation wrapper on top of #doxygen is the bee's knees. I now want to TAB search on every API documentation page :)

Good morning.
If the only things you’ve ever done with R rely on the “tidyverse,” you don’t know R, and can’t claim to.
Be sure your students know this.

Not at all. Both pass off the C library calling `open()` on a file given by a char*.
What is in the char* matters. R is a bystander playing by the OSs rules. And some OSs do better than others.

I cannot tell how often I got code or patches with, say `#include "Abc.h"` failing to compile because the file, at my end, would be `abc.h`. It is beyond stoopid, and all Cupertino's fault.
While one _can_ it is not the default, and that is the bug. No excuses, macOS is wrong here and should have known better.
Just how Windows should not have trampled on POSIX behaviour in its core library. Too late now, but we (in aggregate) wasted millions of developer hours.

It's been years since I had the "pleasure" of working on Windows; I had thought case-sensitve behavior was the default. I could be wrong.
Please do be careful about this. It is one *very* easy way to create non-portable code or scripts. Case matters for reproducibility. #rstats

Sorry to possibly bursting your bubble but what you observe is a side-effect of being on an operating system that threats filenames as case-insensitive. Hello macOS.
"Real" operating systems do not do that.
What your tweet celebrates as is more of a bug than a feature. #rstats
