Sub-Block Alignment

20200105

resume

An interesting variation on the alignment of pipelines including graphics layering is to indent the graphics layering and include it within a code block (surrounded by curly braces). This highlights the graphics layering as a different type of concept to the data pipeline and ensures the graphics layering stands out as a separate stanza to the pipeline narrative. Note that a period is then required in the ggplot2::ggplot() call to access the pipelined dataset. The pipeline can of course continue on from this expression block. Here we show it being piped into a ipred::print() to have the plot displayed and then saved into a variable for later processing. This style was suggested by Michael Thompson.
