In this lesson, you will be learning how to pull in online data sets through the use of APIs, how to create your own functions, and how to iterate over a vector with for
loops and map()
. Next, you will learn how to explore data with collating, interactive plotting, and other tidying/organizing techniques.
There are two R Markdown lessons (01_api-funct-iter, 02_data-wrangling) that must be completed by the due date. Moreover, the following YouTube videos highlight concepts found in each lesson as follows:
01_api-funct-iter.Rmd: APIs; Functions; Iterations. It is important that you watch these in this order - they build off of each other! Together, these videos take about 30 minutes to watch.
02_data-wrangling.Rmd: Data wrangling. This assignment and its associated video build off of what is learned in 01_api-funct-iter. Please start working on this piece after completing that first assignment. The YouTube video is a little over 15 minutes.
First fork then clone this repo, lastly copy/rename each Rmd assignment with your name. After completing the exercises, submit your updated repo as a pull request by the end of Monday, 11/6.
As a reminder... it's okay if you push multiple versions of code/documents to GitHub, even after you submit a pull request! It will just automatically update your pull request.
Happy coding! :-)
