What... Have you seen the piping syntax in tidyverse? It's incomprehensible unless you put in a lot of effort to understand all that's going on.

- teruakohatu 5y agoWhat is incomprehensible about it?
- tomrod 5y agoGrandparent commenter mentioned the piping syntax, specifically.
- disgruntledphd2 5y agoI dunno, I got pretty sick of writing head(filter(df, value>10)) and it's (a little) easier to indent as df %>% filter(value>10) %>% head(). It's problematic because people abuse it for everything (300 line pipes are common, sadly) but it's a really useful tool in moderation.
- lordgroff 5y agoThis is such an odd take. I program almost exclusively Python these days and I miss the elegance of piped functions daily.
