R Package Review Episode 4: Beepr

Key Takeaways

what's going on everybody it has been a while so in this package review I'm just gonna do a very very simple one the beeper package beeper is pretty cool and I like it for several reasons if you do some sort of calculation that takes a long amount of time and you want to get like a notification sound that it's completed beeper gives you a lot of options it also has it has two functions beep and also beep on error I believe it is beeper yeah beep on air so you can actually put in an expression kind of like a unit test like are these two things equal or whatever and then have it do one of the sounds that it has so beepers pretty cool I like a lot of the sounds some of them are reminiscent of my childhood and I enjoy them so I'm just gonna play each sound for instance so it has 11 of them and I'm just gonna play them sequentially my favorite I love how many of these are from Warcraft [Music] that's a good one rollin I definitely need to incorporate this one at work which how I feel in the daily and so an actual implementation of beeper and what I might use it for is if you're doing some sort of really intensive calculation that takes a long time like I mean several minutes and you want to know when it's done so you can come back to whatever you're doing in our studio or are using beeper is a pretty good idea here we go so am I just gonna assign 100 million values with our norm to a variable and it's gonna take a second and then once it's done it's gonna send a notification sound there we go it's done just like a toaster so that's the beefer package two functions pretty funny pretty useful so that's all for this one
