Bizarre, especially given how many prior American philosophers Peirce engages with!

Here is my checklist summarising a small set of some of the simplest tasks you can do that have high potential to improve the reproducibility of your analysis code.

This is based on my year of reproducibility reviews for the J. of Archaeological Science:

I'm very excited to see this new work led by Gia Hurring is now out. We did a lot to shore up our approach to PCA for investigating vocalic covariation and find striking commonality of patterns across multiple corpora of New Zealand English and panel data doi.org/10.1017/S095...

📁 i'm a strong advocate for "project-oriented workflows" when it comes to coding, because it encourages reproducibility and enables easy context-switching. many IDEs support this practice.

but what is a project-oriented workflow? here's a great introduction for R users: rstats.wtf/projects

nzilbb.vowels: Vowel Covariation Tools (0.3.1) is now on CRAN. The package contains many useful functions for applying Principal Component Analysis to vocalic data and visualising the results. Website and documentation here: nzilbb.github.io/nzilbb_vowels/
