HW 5

Functions

1- Create a function named calculate_area_of_circle that takes one parameter, radius, representing the radius of a circle. The function should calculate and return the area using the formula:

area = 𝜋 × radius^2

Test your function with at least two different radii and print the results.

calculate_area_of_circle <- function(radius) {
  area <- pi * radius^2
  return(area)
}

# Test the function
calculate_area_of_circle(3)

## [1] 28.27433

calculate_area_of_circle(5)

## [1] 78.53982

2- Write a function called check_temperature that takes a single numeric input temp.

If temp > 30, print “Hot”

If temp >= 15 & temp <= 30, print “Warm”

Otherwise, print “Cold”

Test the function on three different values (e.g., 10, 20, 35).

check_temperature <- function(temp) {
if (temp > 30) {
return("Hot")
} else if (temp >= 15 & temp <= 30) {
return("Warm")
} else {
return("Cold")
}
}

#Test the function

print(check_temperature(10))

## [1] "Cold"

print(check_temperature(20))

## [1] "Warm"

print(check_temperature(35))

## [1] "Hot"

3- Write a function named sum_odd_numbers that uses a for loop to calculate the sum of all even numbers from 1 to n. The function should return the total sum.

Test the function with n = 9 and n = 39.

sum_odd_numbers <- function(n) {
total <- 0
for (i in 1) {
if (i %% 2 == 0) { # check if even
total <- total + i
}
}
return(total)
}

#Test the function

print(sum_odd_numbers(9))

## [1] 0

print(sum_odd_numbers(39))

## [1] 0

EDA

For this section, use the built-in mtcars dataset (instead of airquality). Perform the following:

Check the structure of the dataset.
Display the summary statistics.
Check for any missing values.

Ask a simple question that can be answered with a basic function (e.g., What is the mean miles per gallon (mpg) across all cars?). Write the code and output the answer.
