R Lab Test

This is Daniel Simms’s Lab test for MSCI 4230. It will be analyzing RStudio’s mtcars and iris data sets.

3. Histogram

The data is not normally distributed. The mean is slightly larger than the median.

hist(mtcars$mpg)

summary(mtcars$mpg)
##    Min. 1st Qu.  Median    Mean 3rd Qu.    Max. 
##   10.40   15.43   19.20   20.09   22.80   33.90

4.Plot

There appears to be a negative correlation between mpg and hp.

plot(mtcars$mpg,mtcars$hp)

5.Boxplot

There is a is a larger standard deviation in mpg than cyc.

boxplot(mtcars$mpg,mtcars$cyl, names=c("MPC","Cyl"))

6. Subsets

dfHigh<-subset(mtcars, mtcars$mpg > mean(mtcars$mpg))

Iris Questions

1.

Sepal.Length, Sepal.Width, Petal.Length and Petal.Width are all ratio data as they have continuous values with 0 having a significant meaning. They can be multiplied by the same value and the ratio between any value will remain the same. Species is nominal categorical as there are preset values to be chosen from furthermore they are not numerical.

2. Plot Graph

There is a positive correlation between Petal Length and Petal Width regardless of species.

plot(iris$Petal.Length,iris$Petal.Width)

3. Box Plot By Species

The setosa species has the lowest mean petal length followed by Versicolor and lastly Virginica has the highest

setosa<-subset(iris,Species=="setosa")
virginica<-subset(iris,Species=="virginica")
versicolor<-subset(iris,Species=="versicolor")
boxplot(setosa$Petal.Length,virginica$Petal.Length,versicolor$Petal.Length, names=c("Setosa","Virginica","Versicolor"))
