Hi Reader!
One quick side note, before we get to today's tip:
There are lots of data science tools and resources that I can't fit into the newsletter, so I share them on social media instead. Follow me on Twitter and connect on LinkedIn if youโre interested!
Please mention the newsletter when inviting me to connect, otherwise I might miss your invitation. Thanks!
Let's say that you need to share your code with a friend, a mailing list, or a discussion group. What do you do?
โ๏ธ You could copy it into an email, but the formatting might get lost.
๐ You could send it as an attachment, but it might get marked as spam.
๐ You could create a GitHub repository, but that seems like a lot of work to share a single file.
My suggestion is to use a GitHub Gist instead!
A Gist is a lightweight GitHub repository that's optimized for a single file.
Itโs easy to create a Gist:
Youโre done!
Copy the Gist URL and send it to anyone you choose:
The recipients can comment on the Gist, download it, or fork it. And you can edit or delete the Gist.
Give it a try the next time you need to share some code!
How useful was todayโs tip?
If you enjoyed this issue, please forward it to a friend! Takes only a few seconds, and it really helps me out ๐
See you next Tuesday!
- Kevin
P.S. Flirting with statistical significanceโ
