Include the following:
Go here, read the introduction and add your name/major

from
the Math 130 webpage: https://norcalbiostat.github.io/MATH130/tidyverse
(a suite of functions in R). Compare it to
the images of the data analysis life cycle. What sense do you get?Yes, yes and yes. You can use any software program you want.
Using a consistent folder structure across your projects will help keep things organized, and will also make it easy to find/file things in the future. This can be especially helpful when you have multiple projects. In general, you may create directories (folders) for scripts, data, and documents.
You need to choose a naming convention for your class folder and stick with it. Recommended options are:
Call this working directory math615
, and create the four
subfolders: data
, scripts
,
documents
and project
.
You will put all files related to this class in here. For example
lecture notes and the sylalbus go in the documents
folder,
homework code files in the scripts
folder, data and
codebook in, you guessed it, the data
folder, and code
specifically for your project in the project
folder.
This means when you download a file, right click and “Save as” or “Save target as” and actively choose where to download this file. Do not let files live in your downloads folder.
Your working directory should now look similar to this:
