Do not change anything in the following chunk
You will be working on olympic_gymnasts dataset. Do not change the code below:
olympics <- readr::read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rfordatascience/tidytuesday/master/data/2021/2021-07-27/olympics.csv')
olympic_gymnasts <- olympics %>%
filter(!is.na(age)) %>% # only keep athletes with known age
filter(sport == "Gymnastics") %>% # keep only gymnasts
mutate(
medalist = case_when( # add column for success in medaling
is.na(medal) ~ FALSE, # NA values go to FALSE
!is.na(medal) ~ TRUE # non-NA values (Gold, Silver, Bronze) go to TRUE
)
)
More information about the dataset can be found at
https://github.com/rfordatascience/tidytuesday/blob/master/data/2021/2021-07-27/readme.md
Question 1: Create a subset dataset with the following columns only: name, sex, age, team, year and medalist. Call it df.
df<- olympic_gymnasts|>
select(name, sex, age, team, year, medalist)
df
## # A tibble: 25,528 × 6
## name sex age team year medalist
## <chr> <chr> <dbl> <chr> <dbl> <lgl>
## 1 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 28 Finland 1948 TRUE
## 2 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 28 Finland 1948 TRUE
## 3 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 28 Finland 1948 FALSE
## 4 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 28 Finland 1948 TRUE
## 5 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 28 Finland 1948 FALSE
## 6 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 28 Finland 1948 FALSE
## 7 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 28 Finland 1948 FALSE
## 8 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 28 Finland 1948 TRUE
## 9 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 32 Finland 1952 FALSE
## 10 Paavo Johannes Aaltonen M 32 Finland 1952 TRUE
## # ℹ 25,518 more rows
Question 2: From df create df2 that only have year of 2008 2012, and 2016
df2 <-df |>
filter(year %in% c(2008, 2012, 2016))
df2
## # A tibble: 2,703 × 6
## name sex age team year medalist
## <chr> <chr> <dbl> <chr> <dbl> <lgl>
## 1 Nstor Abad Sanjun M 23 Spain 2016 FALSE
## 2 Nstor Abad Sanjun M 23 Spain 2016 FALSE
## 3 Nstor Abad Sanjun M 23 Spain 2016 FALSE
## 4 Nstor Abad Sanjun M 23 Spain 2016 FALSE
## 5 Nstor Abad Sanjun M 23 Spain 2016 FALSE
## 6 Nstor Abad Sanjun M 23 Spain 2016 FALSE
## 7 Katja Abel F 25 Germany 2008 FALSE
## 8 Katja Abel F 25 Germany 2008 FALSE
## 9 Katja Abel F 25 Germany 2008 FALSE
## 10 Katja Abel F 25 Germany 2008 FALSE
## # ℹ 2,693 more rows
Question 3 Group by these three years (2008,2012, and 2016) and summarize the mean of the age in each group.
df2 |>
group_by(year) |>
summarize(mean_age = mean(age))
## # A tibble: 3 × 2
## year mean_age
## <dbl> <dbl>
## 1 2008 21.6
## 2 2012 21.9
## 3 2016 22.2
Question 4 Use olympic_gymnasts dataset, group by year, and find the mean of the age for each year, call this dataset oly_year. (optional after creating the dataset, find the minimum average age)
oly_year <- olympic_gymnasts |>
group_by(year) |>
summarize(mean_age = mean(age))
oly_year
## # A tibble: 29 × 2
## year mean_age
## <dbl> <dbl>
## 1 1896 24.3
## 2 1900 22.2
## 3 1904 25.1
## 4 1906 24.7
## 5 1908 23.2
## 6 1912 24.2
## 7 1920 26.7
## 8 1924 27.6
## 9 1928 25.6
## 10 1932 23.9
## # ℹ 19 more rows
Question 5 This question is open ended. Create a question that requires you to use at least two verbs. Create a code that answers your question. Then below the chunk, reflect on your question choice and coding procedure
# Your R code here
#Which team had the highest average age of gymnasts?
gym_2016 <- olympic_gymnasts |>
group_by(year) |>
summarize(mean_age = mean(age))
oly_year
## # A tibble: 29 × 2
## year mean_age
## <dbl> <dbl>
## 1 1896 24.3
## 2 1900 22.2
## 3 1904 25.1
## 4 1906 24.7
## 5 1908 23.2
## 6 1912 24.2
## 7 1920 26.7
## 8 1924 27.6
## 9 1928 25.6
## 10 1932 23.9
## # ℹ 19 more rows
Discussion: Enter your discussion of results here. In this assignment we used information from the dataset to properly organize the information based on the Olympics. We first started with the dataset df to simplify and organize with the information we wanted. Then we continued to filter more by organizing it to include the years 2008, 2012, 2016 to analyze the information from those years specifically. Then we calculated the average age of a gymnast for the years 2008, 2012, and 2016 to find the mean for the different years. After that we went back and calculated the average age of gymnasts in all the years total in the dataset. Then lastly I question 5 to find out which year had the highest average age for a gymnast at the Olympics ever and it was 1896.
