Morning! So here's a few more of my tricks for emulating the amazing coding I've seen from people using R and RStudio!
For example did you know you can hit Tab between "" & it shows you the directories + files in your current workspace?
Do you know the name of the file you're looking for but no idea where in the folder structure it is? No problem, type a few chars of your file name btw "" and hit Tab -> the chars you typed are replaced with the path to the file you're looking for.
Ctrl + . -> Opens a popup where you can search for functions in your script or Files in your folder.
Ctrl + Shift + F -> opens a "Find in Files" popup - you can look for a particular ggplot etc.
Did you know you can pull out tabs from RStudio and move it around to other screens etc.?
The History Tab is super useful, but so is the nifty Ctrl + ↑ at the console. It shows all your past commands. Type a few chars and hit Ctrl + ↑ and it shows you the commands that start with those letters!
Another one I use often is `Code -> Extract Function` if I am using code more than once. It converts the code into a function🌟!
