How to Make a Contribution to Base R

The presentation slides are available in HTML format - press S to view with speaker notes (the video text).

Note: This demo introduces a basic workflow for simple fixes. For more complex work on internal R functions or compiled code (e.g. involving the C code underlying much of base R), it will be necessary to build R to develop and test your patch. Refer to the R Development Guide for more information on building R from source and the lifecycle of a patch.
