Knit early and often!!

Save your file somewhere where you can find it in a reasonably tidy folder structure!

  1. Read in the dataset class.csv and generate a boxplot showing the distribution of each of the skills. Edit one or more of the visual aspects of this plot (Ex: change the color, add a title, change the ylim, add the outliers, make the x-axis labels vertical for a challenge in base R.)
df <- read.csv('/Users/shend/Desktop/Rprog/03_Markdown /dat/classProfiles.csv')

boxplot(df, col = 'pink')

  1. Write at minimum two paragraphs about your goals for the class and for your work in data science more broadly. (No more than a page please.) This can be an elaboration on one element of the skills listed above. Tell me the story of how you came to be a fledgling data scientist. What made you sign up for this course? What brought you to Baylor?

Why I am here!

  1. For this class, I am hoping to understand more about R and the different ways I can utilize it. I had originally come to Baylor as a premed student but found the true nature of being a doctor to be an unsettling life path for me. Certain things had happened in my life that made me believe that I wanted to be a doctor rather than something having to do with business or computers. I want to become a data scientist and simply help groups/companies do their jobs.

  2. I am a person who enjoys working with computers. I’m not a very athletic person which led me down a path where I focused more on the arts such as playing certain instruments and painting. Having a trend of being proficient in indoor activities spurred a deeper care and love for computers. I have built a few computers and have taken a few robotics classes in high school but I feel like currently I am truly learning more about using my technology wisely. It would be a dream to work at or with Nvidia in the future. ’’’

My personal law of not dwelling too much in the past.
  1. Ordered lists are useful but I still prefer unordered.
    • But they can still be used more directly.
  2. Things I don’t like
    • Insanely bright lights in a room.
    • Carpet flooring.

\[\sum_{n=1}^{10} n^2\] I looked this up but I think it’s really cool that you can make such precise notations in R. I am going to try to learn about other notations P.S. This format reminds me of school textbooks, which is a possibility of how they were made.

  1. Format your paragraphs with some markdown. For full credit you must use at least five of the following formatting elements:

Feel free to be creative with this! For example: block quote your personal manifesto, give me an ordered list of ideal elements of the perfect coding environment!

  1. (Optional but fun) Alter the theme in your YAML heading with Bootswatch https://bookdown.org/yihui/rmarkdown/html-document.html#appearance-and-style

  2. Knit to HTML and if you like, upload the folder with your files to Netlify Drop to publish to the web

  3. Knit to PDF and submit to Canvas
