      ...even for people who strictly use R etc and have fully computer generated data, this advice is useful: things like having a data diary defining variables, logs etc. All very good practices! I think it’s a worthy read.

      Oh yeah, thanks. My worry was that a student reading the original tweet would reasonably conclude they should do their analyses in a second spreadsheet, which is not ideal. Also, @o_guest makes good points about avoiding binary (e.g., xls) files.

      I actually found that previous article rereading my Matlab ideas to see if I still agree with them and how they apply to this issue.https://twitter.com/o_guest/status/842794088315404288?s=19 …

      I can't believe I'm going to defend matlab but…it's not that bad. Some things on that list aren't true (there *are* namespaces) and some are caused by excess cleverness. Other languages are sometimes better, sometimes worse (R is chock full of weird surprises!) and the IDE's ok.

      My thoughts are all on my blog so I don't want to go over them in this thread again. But main point is it's not #openscience and it's prohibitively expensive.

          Matlab is a dinosaur, but some of us are dinosaurs. Retraining myself, sacrificing productivity and time at a transition stage to ECR isn't something I'm going to do. So I'll do my best to be open science oriented with my Matlab. And help train the next gen to use R and python.

          That's fair but Matlab isn't #openscience. Sorry but it's just not.

          I'm not sure I like the hard boundary you're drawing. I agree that it'd better if stuff were released in a universally run/readable format, but surely getting it released at all is most of the battle? Octave/Libre Office can handle most things and if not, m-files are just text.
