Assignments
Labs
Lab assignments are an opportunity to put the concepts from the notes into practice to answer questions about a real data set. Your lab report should be a pdf file generated from a fully reproducible qmd file. For a helpful R reference, see base R, data visualization (ggplot2), and data wrangling (dplyr).
Problem Sets
On most class days, we will hand out a sheet of paper called a “problem set.” These are pen-and-paper practice problems that we work on in class. The goal of the problem sets is simply practice: they help you drill the techniques needed to complete the labs. You will scan and submit both problem sets for a given week as a single assignment each Tuesday on Gradescope. Use the “scan to pdf” feature on your phone to get all sides of both sheets into a single PDF, and submit that. The names of the assignments on gradescope tell you the names of the problem sets that are expected.
