Overview

About

Generate pseudonymous animal names that are delightful and easy to remember like the Likable Leech and the Proud Chickadee. A unique pseudonym can be created for every unique element in a vector or row in a data frame. Pseudonyms can be customized and tracked over time, so that the same input is always assigned the same pseudonym.

Changes in 0.1.0
  • implement main functionality and documentation
  • pseudonymize() produces unique pseudonyms for every unique element in a

vector or row in a data frame.

  • An Ark object can be used to ensure consistent pseudonyms between function

calls and customize the pseudonyms (alliterations, custom name parts,

random seed)

  • basic pretty print of Ark objects implemented
