Homework 1

Pre-course assignment

The aim of the pre-course assignment is to ensure that you successfully install the software, that you get some practice with markdown, and that you are able to knit an R Markdown (.Rmd) document into an HTML file.

Specifically, you need to:

1. Write a short biography using markdown
2. Fill out the code in the empty chunks provided, (you can definitely copy, paste, and adapt from tutorials!), and answer all questions.
3. Knit the Rmd to an HTML file

• You can download pre-programme files (data, code, etc.) by pulling from course Github repo. Alternatively, please install package usethis. Once you have it, you can download, unzip, and open everything within an RStudio project by typing the following in the RStudio console

install.packages("usethis")
usethis::use_course("https://github.com/kostis-christodoulou/usi_EMBA_analytics/raw/master/pre_programme_assignment.zip")

Instructions

Please finish the assignment and submit your work as a knitted HTML file on iCorsi.

Also, please submit your work without any of the text I have written– just your code, plots, and explanations/stories.
