The dataset is passed in the “tibble” format and incomplete submissions are filtered out.

Bonaire<- Bonaire%>% 
  as_tibble()%>%
  filter(Completion=="Completed")

The age variable in the survey is defined as a numerical field. For analysis we convert the data into intervals. categories still have to be properly defined and perhaps we will create some alternatives.

Bonaire$Q2 <- 
  ifelse((Bonaire$Q2>=15)&
           (Bonaire$Q2 <= 25),
         "15-25", 
         ifelse((Bonaire$Q2 >= 26)&
                  (Bonaire$Q2 <= 70),
                "26-70",
                ifelse(Bonaire$Q2> 71,"71-115","NA")
         ))
