Motivation

This package displays randomly-chosen facts about Carl Friedrich Gauss, based on the collection curated by Mike Cavers via the gaussfacts web site. Each call of gaussfact() displays another (randomly chosen) fact.

Example

{r} R> library(gaussfacts) # load the package R> set.seed(1) # so that this is predictable R> gaussfact() Gauss can shave with Occam's razor. R>

Package Status

Complete and functional, no dependencies, passes tests.

Installation

The package is on CRAN and can be installed via a standard

{r} R> install.packages("gaussfacts")

Ports

A Julia port is available thanks to Elias Carvalho.
