Welcome!

Welcome to Buckets & Bytes! If you’re into college basketball and curious about how data visualization can elevate your understanding of the game, you’re right where you need to be. My name is Andrew Weatherman, and I am an R enthusiast and college basketball fanatic.

Who is this for?

The explanations in Buckets & Bytes will assume some foundational understanding of R. You need not be an expert by any means, but it would be helpful to have a grasp of core principles. Buckets & Bytes will walk through every step — start to finish — but for brevity, some basic knowledge will be assumed. If you are at least a few weeks into your R journey, Buckets & Bytes will be the perfect learning companion. If you are more advanced, you might still find the visualization code and accompanying walk-through helpful!

What’s the cost?

Buckets & Bytes is a free blog but subscriptions are available if you would like to contribute to my open-source work (B&B, cbbdata, cbbplotR, and more).
