  • 8/30 Signed up for Github, Chameleon, Futuresystems
  • 9/15 Started this class notebook on Github
  • 10/7 Signed up for Sharelatex account
  • 10/7 With help from professor, learned how to use Sharelatex, transfer a MS Word document to latex, and connect Jabref citations to the latex document, then transfer all of these files to github
  • 11/25 Significantly updated this class notebook
  • 12/5 My paper did not load into the proceedings. Change title listed in yaml file to match title of loaded paper. Created readme file with paper title as content.

Practice

  • 9/2 Installed Virtualbox, Ubuntu & Python 2 & 3 via pyenv
  • 9/9 Bought Raspberry Pi and required accessories. Installed NOOBS
  • 9/19-9/23 Started learning how to use Linux.
  • 10/20 Started learning Python. Used Ubuntu installed on Virtualbox on Windows 10
  • 11/4-11/5 Searched for and found data for final project
  • 11/6-11/7 Cleaned the data to be used for final project. Required manually looking up 60 different homicide victim's place of death
  • 11/9 Discovered Paper 2 did not compile. Had to upload several files to Github account. Professor also placed some files
  • 11/9 Placed several technical files on Github account for the final project so that it would compile--copied from Paper 2 files
  • 11/10-11/11 Learned new regression model for final project. Had not previously done work with 'count' data or 'mass at zero' data
  • 11/12-11/15 Worked on regression analysis model & regression diagnostics using RStudio
  • 11/12-11/16 Collected and read resources on 'count' data analysis
  • 11/16-11/17 Had to start regression analysis from the beginning. Had assumed I needed to use "zero-inflated negative binomial" model, however, realized this was theoretically unsound. Switched to simple negative binomial in GLM
  • 11/16 Worked in QGIS to create mapping of homicides
  • 11/17 Coded R-script to automatically perform all of the statistical analyses for the final project
  • 11/18 Uploaded Final Project R-script to Github as RScript, data as data1.csv, variables as variables, and list of original data that had to be cleaned as baddata
  • 11/19 Working in Ubuntu using Virtualbox was incredibly frustrating. Installed Python 2.7 and 3.6 directly onto Windows, learned how to use Powershell to access Python
  • 11/20 Learned how to use PYQGIS--Python console in QGIS
  • 11/20 Coded Python script to automatically create the QGIS map for the final project
  • 11/20 Learned how to use Box at IU. Shapefile was too big to upload to Github, so shapefile and dbf file were zipped and uploaded to Box
  • 11/21 Uploaded Python script to Github as QGISScriptKilledByPolice.py
  • 11/24 Submitted my first experiment, visualizing class data ("Classification 2"), and loaded to Github as R-Script

  • 9/10 Had Paper 1 topic approved. Began researching appropriate journal articles, have found 10 that seem relevant & useful
  • 10/5 Learned how to use Jabref
  • 10/4-10/6 Gathered more articles for Paper 1
  • 10/5-10/7 Wrote Paper 1
  • 10/8 Submitted Paper 1 to Github
  • 10/11 Submitted a review of HID311's Paper 1 to Piazza for discussion assignment

  • 10/21 Created folder for Paper 2
  • 10/24-26 Explored Final Project topic
  • 10/25-26 Gathered resources for Paper 2
  • 10/26 Had Paper 2 topic approved
  • 10/27 Had Final Project topic approved
  • 10/27-11/1 Gathered resources Final Project
  • 10/27-11/4 Gathered resources for Paper 2
  • 11/1-11/4 Wrote Paper 2 on Sharelatex
  • 11/5 Submitted Paper 2 to Github
  • 11/6-11/16 Gathered literature review for Final Project
  • 11/17-11/22 Wrote the final paper on Sharelatex
  • 11/24 Finished final draft of Final Project and submitted to Github. Set status=99% on yaml file
  • 11/28-29 Made final changes to Final Project and set status=100% to yaml file
