Functional Programming

In this post I’m going to show some cool feature of Purrr. Purrr is an R package for functional programming. I have always been fascinated by functional programming. I first heard about it while I was reading Hadley R for Data Science book.

When you have a lot of variables and need to make multiple exploratory plots it’s usually worthwhile to automate the process in R instead of manually copying and pasting code for every plot, this thing happen to me a lot but when I read Hadley Wickham Advance on functional programming, I knew that what I was doing was wrong.
