Unexpected uphill battle in our #rstats course: having the students use the "na" argument in
read_excel()
andread_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 withread_excel()
and see the consequences.
