[Q] 'pivot_longer' applied to an object of class "character"
Such a function wouldn't add anything that factor() or as.factor() don't already do, but the forcats tidyverse package does make it easier to work with factor variables afterwards: https://forcats.tidyverse.org/

This chart has the days of the week on the x-axis, but they are all over the place, starting with Sunday and then going to Wednesday. My table has the correct sequence of days. So why is this happening to me? :\
Turn weekdays to factors to have some control over order. https://forcats.tidyverse.org/ https://r4ds.had.co.nz/factors.html#modifying-factor-order

Frustration: One Year with R
This was fun to play around with. I made some very minor changes and posted at https://gist.github.com/hadley/d54895557fbb0fe0402d2277b9011....
It revealed to me that there's a buglet in `forcats::last()` (https://github.com/tidyverse/forcats/issues/303) and made me wonder if `pivot_longer()` should be able to rename the columns as you pivot them (https://github.com/tidyverse/tidyr/issues/1338)

What would you recommend for a mathematician and R person who really sucks at software/computing to learn Python as well? Or: how is Python so much more difficult than R?
python is a lot more consistent than R. it doesn't have most of the bullshit detailed here: https://github.com/ReeceGoding/Frustration-One-Year-With-R
