Colophon

This book was produced with Quarto, typeset in Source Serif 4, with code blocks set in JetBrains Mono. The examples target Python 3.11 or later, with NumPy 1.26 or later and pandas 2.0 or later.

The book is hosted at https://python-for-r.rgtlab.org on Netlify, with continuous deployment via GitHub Actions from the rgt47/python-for-r repository on every push to main. The deployment recipe is in HOSTING.md.

The cover is generated procedurally by images/build-cover.R from a watercolor gradient anchored on #4b6584 (the volume’s brand slate) and overlaid with Avenir typography. Re-running the script regenerates the cover; the procedural approach makes the cover reproducible and editable in version control rather than dependent on a one-shot image-generation step. That a book about crossing between two languages carries a cover scripted in one of them is a small deliberate joke.
