This is my homework report for week 2, produced with R Markdown. In this homework I perform the five data importing exercises listed under Week 2’s Assignment section, which includes importing the following three data sets:
To reproduce the code and results throughout this homework assignment I used the following packages:
library('readxl') # for reading in the .xlsx file in exercise #3
library('gdata') # for scraping the .xlsx file in exercise #4
library('DT') # Data Table for dataframe
For each problem I imported the data and save as a data frame. I then used head() to display the first few rows of the data frame and str() to display the structure of each data frame.
1. Download & import the csv file located at: https://bradleyboehmke.github.io/public/data/reddit.csv
temp1 <- tempfile("tp1")
download.file("https://bradleyboehmke.github.io/public/data/reddit.csv",temp1)
mydata1<- read.csv(temp1)
unlink(temp1)
datatable(head(mydata1[1:5]))
str(mydata1)
## 'data.frame': 32754 obs. of 14 variables:
## $ id : int 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ...
## $ gender : int 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 ...

2. Now import the above csv file directly from the url provided (without downloading to your local hard drive)
url1 <- "https://bradleyboehmke.github.io/public/data/reddit.csv"
mydata2<- read.csv(url1, stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
datatable(head(mydata2[1:5]))
str(mydata2)
