My partner, who has no experience with R, finds the word "ggplot" so hilarious that he's now taken to randomly saying it to my 4-month-old and 2-year-old and they all crack up. This is a metaphor of some sort but I'm too tired to figure it out. #rstats

#rstats meets homeschool.. Ellie missed her multiplication rainbow from school so we made one together using ggplot. Code is here https://t.co/jJZl83JHRS. It would be cool to see any other educational posters or wallcharts poeple have made with R. pic.twitter.com/0K4MNQFibY
