Question 8
Group flights by destination
by_dest <- group_by(flights, dest)
Summarize to compute distance, average delay, and number of
flights
delay <- summarise(
by_dest,
count = n(),
dist = mean(distance, na.rm = TRUE),
delay = mean(arr_delay, na.rm = TRUE)
)
Filter to remove noisy points and Honolulu airport, which is almost
twice as far away as the next closest airport.
delays <- not_cancelled %>%
group_by(dest) %>%
summarise(
count = n(),
delay = mean(arr_delay, na.rm = TRUE)
)
delay <- filter(delays, count > 20, dest != "HNL")
Plot the relationship between average delay and distance and find
out a pattern.
