This package is designed for rainy days when your results are heartbreaking or when no matter what you try, you can’t seem to get rid of that bug. Take a respite from those negative thoughts by accessing kitty pictures and their adorable meows right from your R console 😻 and then get back to work again.
May these kitties bring some joy and amusement during your stressful data cleaning jobs! 😊
Installation
The package is available only on GitHub:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("IndrajeetPatil/kittyR")Functions
There are only two functions in this package-
kittyR()
In case you want a picture of a kitty:
# to always have the same kitty on README
set.seed(20)
# show me the kitty NOW!
kittyR(meow = FALSE)
By default, the collection will include any kind of cat (big, small, wild, etc.). If you want only kittens, you can use an additional argument.
# to always have the same kitty on README
set.seed(144)
# show me the kitten NOW!
kittyR(meow = FALSE, only_kitten = TRUE)
The collection of cat pictures comes from the following collections of freely available images:
meowR()
In case you just want to hear a meow either apropos nothing or at the end of execution of some code to let you know that the execution is complete, just include this line of code:
# meow meow meow
# you can choose from a sample of six meows
meowR(sound = 4)There are only six meows available at the moment.
| Sound ID | Meows |
|---|---|
| 1 | |
| 2 | |
| 3 | |
| 4 | |
| 5 | |
| 6 |
If you have a kitty meow that you like and would like to include in the package, please either make a PR or e-mail it to me and I will include it.
