Welcome!

We are so thrilled to have Semiramis Castro as our speaker in our last event of the year. In this session we will discuss the core concepts about Microbenchmarking - that is, how to measure and improve performance of R code. We will base this session on chapter 23 and 24 of the Advanced R book (https://adv-r.hadley.nz/) by Hadley Wickham.
