Assignment 5a

Anastasiia Gmyrina

Approach

The goal of this assignment is to practice tidying and reshaping data using tidyr and dplyr. I will first load the airline data and clean the missing values. Since the destinations are currently stored as separate columns, I will use pivoting to reshape the data into a tidy format, where each variable is a column and each observation is a row. I will then calculate and compare the arrival delay rates for Alaska and AM West across the five destinations and summarize the results.

## Approach

The goal of this assignment is to practice tidying and reshaping data using `tidyr` and `dplyr`. I will first load the airline data and clean the missing values. Since the destinations are currently stored as separate columns, I will use pivoting to reshape the data into a tidy format, where each variable is a column and each observation is a row. I will then calculate and compare the arrival delay rates for Alaska and AM West across the five destinations and summarize the results.
