Writing your own functions in R

Where

Main Library, Data Studios

The DRY principle aims to reduce repetition when writing code. By writing and using functions to accomplish a set of instructions multiple times, you reduce the opportunities for mistakes and often improve performance of the code you write. Functional programming makes it easy to apply the same analyses to different sets of data, without excessive copy-paste-update cycles that can introduce hard-to-detect errors.
