DUE Nov. 22 at 5 PM.
The goal of project three is to get you to make significant progress
on the coding aspects of the Final Project. I don’t want people waiting
until the last second to try coding it all the night before. That would
be bad for everyone involved.
Undergrads
Part One
Part One of project three will be to write two of your custom
functions for your R package. One must be to query and/or process data,
one must be to visualize data.
Each function must:
- Have appropriate input and output types
- Do the task it’s supposed to do
- It has to work
- Have some way of evaluating either the output for correctness (i.e.,
knowing you actually dropped the NA values), or validating input (for
your graphing function, it might be easier to evaluate that the inputs
are right than the graph is)
Part Two
This content will be covered the week of Nov. 7, so don’t panic if
you don’t know it yet.
- Each function must have an appropriate header that adequately
explains how the function works
- The package must have a README file that explains what the package
does and what functions are in it.
MS Students/H-Option
Part One
Part One of project three will be to write four of your five
functions. One must be to query and/or process data, one must be to
visualize data. One can be any function of your choice related to your
research.
Each function must be in its own .R script, and have instructions to
run it. All data to run it must be included.
Part Two
This content will be covered the week of Nov. 7, so don’t panic if
you don’t know it yet.
- Each function must have an appropriate header that adequately
explains how the function works
- The package must have a README file that explains what the package
does and what functions are in it.
Part Three
I need three pieces of information from you:
- What else do you need covered in this class?
- Is anyone else in your lab doing similar analyses to what you are
doing?
- Do you think in the future, there will be other students working on
your question in your lab?
