From Data to Thesis: Research Data Analysis with R
Playground, Chapter 5: From Research Question to Data

How to use this project
1. Double-click chapter05.Rproj. RStudio opens with this folder as the working directory.
2. Open exercises.R. It has four parts:
   A. Practise the chapter       the book's exercises, with blanks (______) to fill
   B. Go further                 new exercises beyond the book
   C. Check your understanding   short questions to answer in your own words
   D. Do it yourself             open tasks: no starter code and no answers
   Run a line with Ctrl+Enter (Cmd+Enter on a Mac).
3. Check parts A to C in solutions.R, after you have tried each one yourself.
   Part D has no solutions: the tasks are open, as in your own thesis.

The exercises need this package (install once):
install.packages("dplyr")

Please note: Elaf and her data are fictional. The data was generated by a
computer program to look realistic, and its patterns were built in by the
author. It describes no real people and is not evidence about real students;
do not cite or use it as research findings.

All four parts can also be done in your browser at:
