Week 3 Learning Log

Hi PSYC3361,

Welcome to my Week 3 Learning Log!

1. Goals:

• To complete the Data Wrangling sessions by Dani (Say Hello to your data & dplyr, or a dance with data)
• To not run into any issues that meant I had nothing to put into my learning log (I know…optimistic!)
• Stay calm despite being sooooo out of my comfort zone!

2. How did I go at achieving my goals? (Challenges/Successes):

• Not well…mostly challenges!
• I got through the saying hello to your data session without any issue, but at some point, something happened ( I think it was in the dplyr, or a dance with data session).
• I just kept getting the following error message. Despite continuing a little further with the session, I just wasn’t getting any output because the same error message came up. I have posted on the Slack Coding page to see if anyone can help me and I’ll try the Q&A session if I really can’t get anywhere. My final option is to just completely restart the session.

• However, I’ll show what I did up until then!
• I replaced emojis with arguments and functions…I think?

• I found means and standard deviations using the pipe operator to simplify the code

• Fixed up some more emojified code…but hit another error code:

• I did manage to draw a plot of the Distribution of responses across stimulus band, despite this error message

• And separated responses into expert handwriters and novices

• From here onwards, I just hit error messages!

3. Next Steps

• I’ve posted my question on the Coding page of Slack
• If I don’t get an answer, I’ll try the Coding Q&A on Tuesday
• If still no luck, I’ll restart the session with a new project :)
