Data Exploration
Exercises ~ Week 2
1 Exercise 1
The following table shows sample information for three students. Each observation represents a single student and includes details such as their unique student ID, name, age, total credits completed, major field of study, and year level.
This dataset demonstrates a mixture of variable types:
- Nominal: StudentID, Name, Major
- Numeric: Age (continuous), CreditsCompleted
(discrete)
- Ordinal: YearLevel (Freshman → Senior)
StudentID | Name | Age | CreditsCompleted | Major | YearLevel |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
S001 | Alice | 20 | 45 | Data Sains | Sophomore |
S002 | Budi | 21 | 60 | Mathematics | Junior |
S003 | Citra | 19 | 30 | Statistics | Freshman |
# 1. Create vectors for each variable
StudentID <- c("S001", "S002", "S003") # Nominal / ID
Name <- c("Alice", "Budi", "Citra") # Nominal / Name
Age <- c(20, 21, 19) # Numeric / Continuous
CreditsCompleted <- c(45, 60, 30) # Numeric / Discrete
# Nominal
Major <- c("Data Sains", "Mathematics", "Statistics")
# Ordinal
YearLevel <- factor(c("Sophomore", "Junior", "Freshman"),
levels = c("Freshman","Sophomore","Junior","Senior"),
ordered = TRUE)
# 2. Combine all vectors into a data frame
students <- data.frame(
StudentID, Name, Age, CreditsCompleted, Major, YearLevel,
stringsAsFactors = FALSE
)
# 3. Display the data frame
print(students)
## StudentID Name Age CreditsCompleted Major YearLevel
## 1 S001 Alice 20 45 Data Sains Sophomore
## 2 S002 Budi 21 60 Mathematics Junior
## 3 S003 Citra 19 30 Statistics Freshman
2 Exercise 2
Identify Data Types: Determine the type of data for each of the following variables:
# Install knitr package if not already installed
# install.packages("knitr")
library(knitr)
# Create a data frame for Data Types
variables_info <- data.frame(
No = 1:5,
Variable = c(
"Number of vehicles passing through the toll road each day",
"Student height in cm",
"Employee gender (Male / Female)",
"Customer satisfaction level: Low, Medium, High",
"Respondent's favorite color: Red, Blue, Green"
),
DataType = c(
"numeric",
"numeric",
"kategorikal",
"kategorikal",
"kategorikal"
),
Subtype = c(
"diskrit",
"kontinu",
"nominal",
"ordinal",
"nominal"
),
stringsAsFactors = FALSE
)
# Display the data frame as a neat table
kable(variables_info,
caption = "Table of Variables and Data Types")
No | Variable | DataType | Subtype |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Number of vehicles passing through the toll road each day | numeric | diskrit |
2 | Student height in cm | numeric | kontinu |
3 | Employee gender (Male / Female) | kategorikal | nominal |
4 | Customer satisfaction level: Low, Medium, High | kategorikal | ordinal |
5 | Respondent’s favorite color: Red, Blue, Green | kategorikal | nominal |
3 Exercise 3
Classify Data Sources: Determine whether the following data comes from internal or external sources, and whether it is structured or unstructured:
# Install DT package if not already installed
# install.packages("DT")
library(DT)
# Create a data frame for data sources
data_sources <- data.frame(
No = 1:4,
DataSource = c(
"Daily sales transaction data of the company",
"Weather reports from BMKG",
"Product reviews on social media",
"Warehouse inventory reports"
),
Internal_External = c(
"internal",
"eksternal",
"eksternal",
"internal"
),
Structured_Unstructured = c(
"structured",
"structured",
"unstructured",
"structured"
),
stringsAsFactors = FALSE
)
# Display the data frame as a neat table
datatable(data_sources,
caption = "Table of Data Sources",
rownames = FALSE) # hides the index column

Calculate total revenue for each transaction by multiplying
Qty × Price
and add it as a new columnTotal
.Compute summary statistics - Total quantity sold for each product
- total revenua per product -average price per product
Visualize the data:
- Create a barplot showing total quantity sold per product.
- Create a pie chart showing the proportion of total revenue per customer tier.
Optional Challenge:
- Find which date had the highest total revenue.
- Create a stacked bar chart showing quantity sold per product by customer tier.
Hints: Use data.frame()
,
aggregate()
, barplot()
, pie()
,
and basic arithmetic operations in R.

Create Your Own Data Frame:
Objective: Create a data frame in R with 30 rows containing a mix of data types: continuous, discrete, nominal, and ordinal.
4.1 Instructions
Open RStudio or the R console.
Create a vector for each column in your data frame:
- Date: 30 dates (can be sequential or random within
a month/year)
- Continuous: numeric values that can take decimal
values (e.g., height, weight, temperature)
- Discrete: numeric values that can only take whole
numbers (e.g., number of items, number of vehicles)
- Nominal: categorical values with no
order (e.g., color, gender, city)
- Ordinal: categorical values with a defined order (e.g., Low, Medium, High; Beginner, Intermediate, Expert)
- Date: 30 dates (can be sequential or random within
a month/year)
Combine all vectors into a data frame called
my_data
.Check your data frame using
head()
orView()
to ensure it has 30 rows and the columns are correct.Optional tasks:
- Summarize each column using
summary()
- Count the frequency of each category for Nominal
and Ordinal columns using
table()
- Summarize each column using
4.2 Hints
- Use
seq.Date()
oras.Date()
to generate the Date column.
- Use
runif()
orrnorm()
for continuous numeric data.
- Use
sample()
for discrete, nominal, and ordinal data.
- Ensure the ordinal vector is created with
factor(..., levels = c("Low","Medium","High"), ordered = TRUE)
(or similar).
