Module 3 Assignment

 








The result of the dataset are the polling data from the 2016 presidential election. The dataset includes candidates' names and polling results from two sources: ABC and CBS. The data being shared is for practice only and does not reflect the real election outcomes. After putting the data through R, the results are a big difference between the two sources. CBS poll reports a higher average support with a mean of 27.14 while ABC poll has a mean of 24.14. This suggests that CBS measured stronger voter support across candidates than ABC. Donald received the highest level of support in both polls, with 62 in the ABC polls and 75 in the CBS poll. This indicates the consistent popularity across the polling source. Carly has the lowest support in both polls, suggesting minimal voter. In comparison of polls being different in terms of some candidates. For example, it shows that Hillary and Bernie received higher values in CBS poll than in the ABC poll. It showed that Ted and Marco had higher support in the ABC poll. These demonstrate how polling results can diff depending on the source, even when evaluating the same candidates.

  This a 10 x 10 in R. Matrix A contains the numbers 1 - 100, and the Matrix B contains the numbers 1 - 1,000. The matrix() function arranges the numbers into rows and columns so they can be used to matrix calculations. By specifying nrow = 10, it tells R to place the numbers into 10 rows. Since there are 100 values total, R fill 10 columns automatically. That how you get the 10 x 10 square matrix. With the 1:1000, it creates a sequence from 1 to 1000. The matrix () functions arrange the numbers into 10 rows, since there is 1000 numbers total, R creates 100 columns (1000 / 10 = 100). So, B becomes a 10 100 matrix, which is rectangular rather than square. This matters since there is only square matrices and can have determinants and inverses. The rm() function removes all existing objects from memory and ensure that no old variables interfere with your results. 1 :100 created numbers from 1 to 100. These numbers were arranged into 10 rows, producing a 10 x 10 matrix for A. 1: 1000 c...

Assignment #1: Getting Started with R Programming

Any issues you encountered during installation? I already had R installed into my computer due to taking classes in the past where R was required for the class. I never uninstalled it since I was going to be taking more programming classes that required it. The version that I have was the version that professors tell us to install in the introduction class of R programming. But I did not have any issues installing it.  How you resolved them (if applicable)? I had not issue with it already on my computer. So, I didn't have to resolve anything. Your system details (OS version, R version, RStudio version)? I am not very sure which version I have. But I think I have the RStudio version through posit. When I did install R, I did go through posit website that was given by my professor at the time and that is how I installed the version that I have now What an R vector is? Why vectors are fundamental to data analysis in R? R vector is the most basic data structure in R that consists of c...
