Tinyplot

[grantmcdermott]

Closes #50.

Placing in draft mode because I want to release tinyplot 0.5.0 first to ensure we don't run into some edge cases. I'll ping when that's done and ready.

That aside, using the current dev version of tinyplot and this fork, we get the following (taken straight from the ?tinyplot.microbenchmark Examples):

library(microbenchmark)
library(tinyplot)

tm <- microbenchmark(rchisq(100, 0),
                     rchisq(100, 1),
                     rchisq(100, 2),
                     rchisq(100, 3),
                     times=100L)
#> Warning in microbenchmark(rchisq(100, 0), rchisq(100, 1), rchisq(100, 2), :
#> less accurate nanosecond times to avoid potential integer overflows

# default plot
tinyplot(tm)

# same, but with aesthetic tweaks
tinyplot(tm,
         main = "Impressive benchmarks",
         sub = "Brought to you by tinyplot",
         fill = "transparent",
         theme = "classic")

# we can use the tinyplot scaffolding to add layer to our plot
 tinyplot_add(type = "jitter", cex = 0.5, alpha = 0.3)

P.S. I got this boilerplate message upon opening this PR. But, unless my eyes deceive me, there's no CONTRIBUTING.md...?

Hi @joshuaulrich, tinyplot 0.5.0 is on CRAN so this PR should now be ready for review.

Minor notes: I bumped the microbenchmark version number in the DESCRIPTION file to a dev version. Not sure of the official policy here. Similarly, I didn't see a NEWS file; not sure if you want me to record a changelog entry anywhere.

Thanks! I'm not sure when I'll have time to take a look though. I've been swamped with kids' school, kids' hockey, work, and moving. But I'll get this merged once I'm able to come up for air... haha.

No rush on my side. Good luck with everything, esp. the move!

Just ran into a regression for this PR (and thus outside of our normal test suite), following the release of tinyplot 0.6.0.

I'll try to fix in the coming days. Will ping when ready again.

Hi @joshuaulrich. The minor regression above has been fixed with tinyplot v0.6.1, which is now available on CRAN, so this should be ready to review.

Just a gentle push to take a look when you can.
