It can be hard to understand an R object. print() or str() methods don't tell the full story, and dput() has several issues: * Et doesn't handle some objects * It is sometimes inaccurate, and doesn't test its accuracy * It uses only low level constructors (list(), c(), not factor(), data.frame() etc) * Its output's indentation is inconvenient The constructive package tackles those issues and more and can be used for : * Object exploration/debugging * Reproducible examples * Editing manually data in R * Snapshot tests We'll demonstrate during this talk the main features and use cases for this package.
