# Overview

`despair` is a package inspired by Shakespeare's work and his well-known pessimism. It allows the user to create short, clever codes called bard–bits inspired by Shakespeare's work and use daily demotivational quotes for personal use or to share with others.

## Installation

You can install this package on CRAN

``` r

install.packages("despair")

```

You can also install the development version of this package through the `devtools` package.

```r

devtools::install_github("jpmonteagudo28/despair")

```

## Usage

There are three basic functions in the package: demotivate, motivate, and bard.bits. Each function will take a category input and an optional numeric or character seed for reproducible results.

```{r example, eval=FALSE}

library(despair)

#> Get info on package version 

 despair.message()

#> despair string generated by {despair} v.0.1.0.R version 4.4.1 (2024-06-14 ucrt).

demotivate()

#> "I’m not really good at advice. Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?"

demotivate("science", seed = 123)

#> "No matter how hard you try, you’ll always be within one standard deviation of average."

demotivate("science", seed = "lanky poodle")

#> "Don't worry! There might be a socio-anthropoligical intepretation of your results"

motivate("lit")

#> "If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything. — Mark Twain"

motivate("religion", seed = 123)

#> "The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us. - C.S. Lewis"

motivate("religion", seed = "bewildered pooh")

#> "Really great things, when discussed by little men, can usually make such men grow big. - Augustine of Hippo"

bard.bits()

#> "brownish purple kite"

bard.bits("character", seed = 123)

#> "filthy duncan"

bard.bits("character", seed = "stinky chihuahua")

#> "lofty tranio"
