Homework 1

homework1.Rmd

You will be working on homework1.Rmd. This Rmd is included in the session2-workshop1.zip file that contains all necessary session files (data, code, etc.)

• You can download the zip file from Canvas, or by pulling from the course Github repo.
• Alternatively, please install package usethis. Once you have it, you can download, unzip, and open everything within an RStudio project by typing the following in the RStudio console.

usethis::use_course("https://github.com/kostis-christodoulou/am01/raw/master/session2-workshop1.zip")

Instructions

Please finish the assignment and submit your work as a knitted HTML or PDF file on Canvas.

Also, please submit your work without any of the text I have written– just your code, plots, and explanations/stories.

Rubric

• Check minus (1/5): Displays minimal effort. Doesn’t complete all components. Code is poorly written and not documented. Uses the same type of plot for each graph, or doesn’t use plots appropriate for the variables being analysed.
• Check (3/5): Solid effort. Hits all the elements. No clear mistakes. Easy to follow, both the code and the output.
• Check plus (5/5): Finished all components of the assignment correctly and addressed both challenges. Code is well-documented. Used tidyverse, instead of base R. Graphs and tables are properly labelled. Analysis is clear and easy to follow, either because graphs are labeled clearly or you’ve written additional text to describe how you interpret the output.
