reprex: Efficient and pleasant conversations about R code

[maurolepore]

Who is the audience?

Anyone at 2DII and beyond who wants to have efficient and pleasant
conversations about R code -- particularly if you are new to 2DII
or to the reprex package.

Why is this important?

A reprex makes a conversation about code more efficient and
pleasant for all. This comes up whenever you ask someone for
help, report a bug in software, or propose a new feature. The
reprex package (https://reprex.tidyverse.org) makes it especially
easy to prepare R code as a reprex, in order to share on sites
such as https://community.rstudio.com, https://github.com,
or https://stackoverflow.com. The habit of making little,
rigorous, self-contained examples also has the great side effect
of making you think more clearly about your programming problems.
