  1. Unexpected uphill battle in our #rstats course: having the students use the "na" argument in read_excel() and read_csv(). If you don't use this, you can be stuck with character columns, or even worse, nonsensical values. Take care of this first of it'll be a pain later.

      Maybe this is a consequence that it is set by default in read_csv() and we don't cover it usually in most courses. But that's why they have to encounter it multiple times, especially with read_excel() and see the consequences.
