Week 3: APIs, Functions, and Iteration

Goals

In this lesson, you will be learning how to pull in online data sets through the use of APIs, how to create your own functions, and how to iterate over a vector with for loops and map(). Next, you will learn how to explore data with collating, interactive plotting, and other tidying/organizing techniques.

Assignment

There are two R Markdown lessons (01_api-funct-iter, 02_data-wrangling) that must be completed by the due date. Moreover, the following YouTube videos highlight concepts found in each lesson as follows:

01_api-funct-iter.Rmd: APIs; Functions; Iterations. It is important that you watch these in this order - they build off of each other! Together, these videos take about 30 minutes to watch.

02_data-wrangling.Rmd: Data wrangling. This assignment and its associated video build off of what is learned in 01_api-funct-iter. Please start working on this piece after completing that first assignment. The YouTube video is a little over 15 minutes.

First fork then clone this repo, lastly copy/rename each Rmd assignment with your name. After completing the exercises, submit your updated repo as a pull request by the end of Monday, 11/6.

As a reminder... it's okay if you push multiple versions of code/documents to GitHub, even after you submit a pull request! It will just automatically update your pull request.

Happy coding! :-)
