Programming I mean that I have 5 different ways of doing anything and everything.

Programming I mean that I have 5 different ways of doing anything and everything. SO if I want to do loops (I never do and people shouldn't) I can. If I want to do strict funtional programming, no problem. If I want to use a SQL type syntax I can use data.table. This is frustrating at first since stackoverflow will have a bunch of solutions and it will be something new. I end up really using a few libraries and sticking with them. I use dplyr, stringr, httr, ggvis or ggplot2 and tidyr. Graphics I can use just about anything. I can use plottly, ggplot2, D3.js, PDF report, HTML, send to a blogging site, interactive graphics with ggvisand Shiney, even PowerPoint slides.
