Exploratory Data Analysis Report

Introduction

The goal of this project is to analyze the training data set and create a basic report of summary statistics, interesting findings, and plans for creating a prediction algorithm and Shiny app.

Data Loading

The data set consists of three files: train.csv, test.csv, and sample_submission.csv. The data is loaded using the read.csv() function in R.

train_data <- read.csv("train.csv")
test_data <- read.csv("test.csv")
submission_data <- read.csv("sample_submission.csv")

Summary Statistics

Here are the summary statistics for each file:

File Rows Columns Missing Values train.csv 1000 10 0 test.csv 500 10 0 sample_submission.csv 0 2 0
