Returns a tibble listing an opinionated set of abbreviations commonly used when writing R code. It can be used as a reference, for example, to check availability/consistency when considering using some abbreviation in a function or argument name.
Value
A tibble.
Details
To avoid the list getting excessively long and redundant, the main focus is on verbs and nouns. Adjectives and adverbs are only listed in column
full_expression when there's not already a verb or noun with the same root word listed for a particular abbreviation. That means that e.g. the
abbreviation "seq" could also stand for the full expressions "sequential" or "sequentially", despite the fact that it is not explicitly listed but merely the
verb/noun "sequence" is.
