05 November 2016
Introduction
For the final project of the Developing Data Product Course, a Shiny app has been developed based on my eariler work submitted for the Regression Model Course.
This purpose of this simple Shiny app is to enable users to visually perform an exploratory data analysis of the relationship between “Miles Per Gallon” (mpg) and other variables captured in the MTCars dataset.

Overview of Shiny App Interface
Users can visually explore the relationship between independent variables in the MTCars dataset vs. mpg, by selecting the variable from the dropdown on the left.
A plot of the relationship between mpg and the selected variable is then dynamically displayed in the chart area.
