I've not done #tidytuesday in a longggg time and this week's dataset on dialogues from Shakespeare plays was a nice way to get back into it. Nothing too complicated, just a bump chart tracking the amount of dialogue for major characters. Everything in R with ggplot #dataviz #rstats

A quick reminder that if you are scoring/recoding variables using the same logic in #rstats, you can use across() to score those items all at once. pic.twitter.com/KnYbIHKlqZ
