Cheat Sheets · R Views

In a previous post, I described how I was captivated by the virtual landscape imagined by the RStudio education team while looking for resources on the RStudio website. In this post, I'll take a look at Cheatsheets another amazing resource hiding in plain sight. Apparently, some time ago when I wasn't paying much attention, cheat sheets evolved from the home made study notes of students with highly refined visual cognitive skills, but a relatively poor grasp of algebra or history or whatever to an essential software learning tool. I don't know how this happened in general, but master cheat sheet artist Garrett Grolemund has passed along some of the lore of the cheat sheet at RStudio. One day I put two and two together and realized that our Winston Chang, who I had known for a couple of years, was the same "W Chang" that made the LaTex cheatsheet that I'd used throughout grad school.
