The braingames package is a collection of mental challenges in the
form of Shiny apps.
You can install this package from GitHub with:
devtools::install_github('scottyd22/braingames')Three main motivators pushed me to create this package. First, I really wanted to go through the process of making an R package (for the public). Second, I thought it was about time I contributed something to the open source community (a goal of mine for 2018). Finally, I really enjoy working with Shiny and thought this would be a fun way to explore new functionality/interactivity.
Three challenges are currently available for the precise moment
procrastination strikes. The first, concentration, is a nod to the
card game I loved to play as a kid. The next two, mathsquare and
mathtriangle, are challenges I presented to students back when I was a
math teacher.
Launching a challenge is as easy as typing its name. concentration is
the only challenge that accepts parameters (specify difficulty level 1,
2, or 3)
