purrr で学ぶ中級関数型プログラミング

Ready to go deeper with functional programming and purrr? In this chapter, we'll discover the concept of functional programming, explore error handling using including safely() and possibly(), and introduce the function compact() for cleaning your code.

In this chapter, we'll use purrr to write code that is clearer, cleaner, and easier to maintain. We'll learn how to write clean functions with compose() and negate(). We'll also use partial() to compose functions by "prefilling" arguments from existing functions. Lastly, we'll introduce list-columns, which are a convenient data structure that helps us write clean code using the Tidyverse.

We'll wrap up everything we know about purrr in a case study. Here, we'll use purrr to analyze data that has been scraped from Twitter. We'll use clean code to organize the data and then we'll identify Twitter influencers from the 2018 RStudio conference.
