When teaching the plotting episode the only major omission that comes to mind is colormaps. This is one of the major means of showing a third data 'axis', and would provide another means for new users to abide by the accessibility recommendations at the end of the lesson.

The concept could be introduced after the first demonstration of scatter, by swapping the s size argument for c. This hopefully wouldn't make the lesson too long, as it's essentially a small change to an existing example.

* Remove executable bits from Python scripts

We can't use a single shebang:
* on some platforms `python` may mean Python 2, on others - Python 3
* on some platforms `python3` does not exist at all

Therefore, we're removing the shebangs altogether.

* Makefile: fix comment in front of `lesson-check` (#481)

Comments prepended with `##` appear in the output of `make commands`.
This commit changes `#` to `##` in front of `lesson-check` so that it

* Makefile: fix 'lesson-fixme' target for Windows (#486)

Git for Windows doesn't provide fgrep, which is a shortcut
to call `grep -F` on Mac and Linux. Instead, we have to use
full arguments.

* Fix Python scripts for Windows: UTF-8 encoding (#485)

To avoid problems with various symbols, we have to specify the encoding
when we read files.
The actual codec name is `utf_8` but aliases like `utf8`, `utf-8`, etc
are accepted. Here, I'm using `utf-8` alias.
https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/codecs.html#standard-encodings

This fixes `make lesson-check` when running under 'Git for Windows' for
lessons that have non-cp1252 characters.

* GitHub Actions: website (#488)

* GitHub Actions: better workflow and job names (#500)

* GitHub Action: website.yml: don't run in forks (#501)

* GH Website action: rename + don't use lesson directory (#504)

When 'Website' action tests a lesson, it checks out repositories into the current working directory: 'lesson' directory doesn't exist.
As a result, steps that use "lesson" as the working directory fail.

* update link to discuss mailing list (#507)

* add default repository to install_required_packages() (#509)

* add warning blockquote

* Revert "Merge branch 'gh-pages' of github.com:carpentries/styles into gh-pages"

This reverts commit 2c6b97e, reversing
changes made to 53e9913.

* add warning code block

* update expected reference filename (#508)

* lesson.scss: no borders around unrecognized code (#510)

* bump ruby version (as specified in github-pages v209)

This is a modification for #501

* add control structure

* 404 page for better learner experience

* lesson.scss: wildcard selectors for code blocks

* Ignore .jekyll-metatada

* Speed up builds of R-based lessons

R-based lessons might take a while to build because packages need to be compiled from source. RStudio Package Manager has compiled versions of packages for ubuntu distros starting with 16.04: https://packagemanager.rstudio.com/client/#/repos/1/overview

I've added the necessary magic in the actions yaml to make it work.

* No need for User Agent string

* permissive checks for pre-alpha lessons

This will fix #533

* bin/lesson_check.py: allow 'language-*' code blocks (#532)

* bin/lesson_check.py: allow 'caution' blockquote

* avoid ansi color characters from being printed

* deploy from "website" action

* deploy R-based lessons without using another action

* also delete _site

* include @zkamvar suggestions

* GitHub Actions: cache required R packages (#534)

* add missing parenthesis

* Add incubator option for carpentry field. (#542)

Closes #541

* .editorconfig: don't trim trailing spaces in markdown

* lesson.scss: HTML block

carpentries/styles#519

* add patch to clean gh-pages before committing (#545)

This will address #544

* Fix Kramdown parser crash

... by using GFM (GitHub-flavored Markdown) parser (`kramdown-parser-gfm`)
instead of the default one (`kramdown`).

The default one fails to produce an AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) when
there is no blank line before the line with the opening code fence.

Related:
 - gettalong/kramdown#530
 - Python-Markdown/markdown#807

Fixes: carpentries/styles#543

* bin/util.py: Change ruby executable to "bundle exec ruby"

Closes: carpentries/styles#547

* Change link colours (#549)

...to make them distinguishable from regular text. And for accessibility!

* bin/workshop_check.py: update default contact email address

* Gemfile: add 'webrick' dependency for Ruby 3.0.0 and above

Fixes carpentries/styles#552

* lesson_check.py allow for missing life_cycle

This will fix carpentries/styles#556

* update with Maxim's suggestion

* Add catch for None type code block in lesson_check

There are times when the AST is malformed and does not emit a class for
the code element. We do not want the parser to crash when this happens,
but we also want to notify ourselves that the AST is malformed.

This should not result in an error because as we saw in
carpentries/styles#543, the parser itself can
cause these malformations when the lesson itself renders well. Even
though we fixed the previous issue with an updated parser, problems
still persist:
swcarpentry/r-novice-gapminder#696 (comment)

I fully admit that this is a kludge.

* fix syntax

I've removed the print condition, because it will just result in an error no matter what (sigh)

* Makefile: fix 'bundle config' command flags

* Makefile: clean target: remove .vendor, .bundle, Gemfile.lock

Clean up:
1. `.vendor` directory where Bundler installs all the gems.
2. `.bundle` directory where Bundler stores its settings.
3. `Gemfile.lock` file generated by the Bundler.

* Makefile: silence Docker commands

* use Ruby's official GH Actions

* Makefile: use SHELL to call bin/knit_lesson.sh

* Makefile: fix up PHONY targets

* Fix GitHub actions for lessons in Rmarkdown

Specifically, set CRAN repository to https://cran.rstudio.com

* apply single shadow to image class

* use grey shadow instead of transparent black

* expand image-with-shadow selection

* Makefile: don't fail when Python isn't found

* bin/dependencies.R: handle 'no packages were specified' error

Fixes the following issue:

```
$ make site
lib paths: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library
Error in install.packages(missing_pkgs, lib = lib, repos = repos) :
  no packages were specified
Calls: install_required_packages -> install.packages
Execution halted
make: *** [install-rmd-deps] Error 1
```

* Don't check links.md in lessons that use remote theme

Fixes carpentries/styles#570

* add link references to code_of_conduct.md (#572)

* Update links.md

* add source_dir argument

This will fix carpentries/styles#576

* Improved relative_root_path

* update contributing guide

* add further languages for box titles (#580)

Will be useful for HPC-Carpentry lessons, GPU programming lesson as well as Julia lessons which are currently in the incubator.

* bin/lesson_check.py: allow comments and empty lines in links.md

* bin/lesson_check.py: one more fix for using_remote_theme()

* Template workflow: add two more lessons

* add make lesson-check-all step

* Set working directory for the 'make site' step

* Template workflow: smarter syncing with the styles repo

Current syncing procedure that used in the Template workflow fails for:

1. Lessons that are, in fact, nsync with the styles repo.
2. For lessons that use The Carpentries' remote theme and have deleted
   some of the files.

This PR makes this step a little bit more intelligent and takes into
account the above two scenarios.

* Apply Zhian's suggestions

* add math support with katex (#573)

* bin/util.py: remove unused 'IMAGE_FILE_SUFFIX' var (#590)

It should've been removed in 7e835fd.

* bin/lesson_check.py: use proper function

* bin/lesson_check.py: allow exceptions to line length limit

Allow lines that contain a single image or a single link
to go over the suggested line length limit.

* lesson_check.py: harden single-line image/link pattern

This change hardens the pattern that matches single-line
image or link:

1. It extends the pattern to be matched in a heading
2. It allows the line to contain {: ...} customizations
3. It allows the line to end with \

* lesson_check.py: relax P_LINK_IMAGE_LINE pattern

This PR allows up to 3 non-word (`\W` in Python's `re`-speak) characters
in the beginning and end of the pattern that matches links and images.
This is to allow lesson developers place punctuation marks, parentheses,
or other symbols before or after the link or image on the same line in
Markdown.

* bin/util.py: Factor out reporter class. Define __all__

* Don't force hostname into relative_root_path

* lesson_check.py: add a comment about importing * from a package

Co-authored-by: Zhian N. Kamvar <[email protected]>

* lesson.scss: define 'inline' class for images

Define `inline` class for images that should not be displayed as block
elements.

By appending `{:class="inline"}` or `{: .inline}` to the image definition
in Markdown, one can create an inline image that doesn't break the
current line and is embedded in the paragraph. Useful for showing
special symbols and hieroglyphs that we can't display by other means.

* Makefile: require index.md (#607)

* Fix broken "How to contribute" link

* lesson_check.py: report check status at the end

* util.py: load_yaml: Don't fail when it's not necessary

Also, make 'require()' function not fail by default.
The only case where we really need to fail is when 'kramdown' parser is
not specified. This is a highly unlikely scenario, tbh (because
arguments to `lesson_check.py` are set in the Makefile), but we can
think about reworking/optimizing this part later.

* lesson_check.py: fix error message for the 'defaults' check

* lesson_check.py: use proper regex for matching episode files

* lesson-check.py: read `config.yml` only once

1. Read `config.yml` file only once and store the contents in a global
   variable `CONFIG`. We're currently reading this file twice.
2. Detect lesson life cycle in `main` instead of making `check_config`
   return it.
3. Replace `using_remote_theme` function with a single test that checks
   that `remote_theme` keyword is present in `_config.yml`
4. CheckEpisode class: `check` method: move "remote theme test" inside the `check_reference_inclusion`.
5. main: mvoe "remote theme test" inside the `read_references`

@christopherlovell thanks - I know years have passed but I like the idea. Currently the s= parameter is used only in an exercise. Is that where you would like to use c= as well?
