Continuing with our programming series, we will talk about Function – much of all that it entails. Understanding functions is important if you want to learn how to code. The same applies to ...

In modern programming, it's uncommon to see functions longer than around 100 lines of code, because by then, there's probably something that should be pulled out and made into its own function.

As a general rule, this is a programming style that is best avoided because such functions can become a source of subtle programming errors as programs grow in size and complexity (for example, it’s ...

In other words, if I had named my function sum, it would've killed the built-in sum function that adds up the values in an array or vector. Because R has many hundreds of built-in functions, you ...
