The proverbs package was built to do one thing: print out a daily proverb to your R console. There are 31 proverbs, and up to 31 days in each month.
Many people like to read a proverb for each day of the month, so they end up reading proverbs once a month, twelve times a year.
This package prints the chapter of proverbs that corresponds to that day of the month; ie. on the 21st of June proverbs will print Proverbs 21.
This is the main function:
