Data Ignota: First Visualization

Mathieu Glachant

I put up the first demo visualization based on the said.csv data. Given how many words I’ve already written on this website to get to this point, the subject is rather ironic: verbosity, and in particular in asides to the reader. 😅

What It Took to Get Here

Clarifications:

Add some demo visualizations
- Create new viz collection
  - create collection
  - create listing page
  - add listing page to nav bar
  - add RSS feed to feed menu
  - add link to listing page to homepage
- Write up inaugural post for new collection
  - Picked distribution of number of words as proxy for verbosity

Lessons Learned

The group_by() + summarise() pattern requires an explicit assignment of a summary value any other column you want to keep, e.g using mean() here to keep the words when grouping by the unique line id:

said  %>%
  group_by(line) %>%
  summarize(words = mean(words), .groups = "drop")
