Continuing from last week, Ellis Hughes and I step through a solution for Advent of Code Day 7. This week’s code puzzle has us trying to solve a method for finding a minimum value in a string of numbers created by some simple mathematical operations.
The task requires us to use some for() loops and build a lookup table for identifying values.

This week, Ellis Hughes and I decide to try our hand at some of the coding challenges put on by the annual Advent of Code event.
For those that don’t know, Advent of Code is a fun, holiday event, where the founder, Eric Wastl, creates 25 straight days of puzzles and brain teasers to be solved via code. The event is coding language agnostic (some use R, some use Python, some use other languages) and is a lot of fun. If you search on Twitter you will find a large number of people sharing solutions and ideas.
This week, we go over code to solve the Day 6 puzzle about laternfish.

Ellis Hughes and I have just completed 9 straight episodes on building a machine learning framework with {tidymodels}. What better way to wrap up this series than with our tenth episode being an interview with none other than, Julia Silge!
Julia is one of the main developers of the {tidymodels} package and continues to be a great ambassador of all things R, educating people along the way with her weekly screen casts.
In this episode we:

Last week, Ellis and I covered how to set up a workflowset in {tidymodels}. This is an efficient way to test multiple models simultaenously. However, some of these models have tuning parameters that can help to optimize them. This week, we talk about how to tune the models within your workflowset.

We’ve been working on developing machine learning models using {tidymodels} over the past several weeks. Sometimes, though, you need to build a variety of models on your data. This week, Ellis Hughes and I explore {workflowsets}.
Workflow sets allow you to set specific recipes for different model types and then run a variety of models simultaneously. Topics we cover:
