So…I’m back with Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012 for XBox Kinect. Why? Because I want to loose some weight and get back in shape of course -;)Want to share your content on R-bloggers? click here if you have a blog, or here if you don't.
The reason I stop playing the game is simple…I’m lazy…but this time, I have come back with a goal…burn calories!
While I’m using the Your Shape IPhone Application which is really good…I wanted to do something with R and more precisely with Rook…
What I wanted, was a way to keep track of the days and calories burned and generate a nice graphic, but allowing me to choose a range of dates…
This is the code I came up with yesterday night…

When we executed, the application is going to read the first and the last line of our .CSV file and set the default values for the comboboxes…making it easy to select the date range…
Here comes the screenshot -;)
So…you can see that I’m making big progress…I started 3 days ago and burning more calories each day…
