Unidimensional continuous variables

histograms
boxplots
normal distributions (include drawing normal curves with facetting)
ridgeline plots
....
no need to include every possible plot -- keep focused on the current problem set

  • remove "Relative frequency: y = number of values that fall in each bin / total number of values"
  • add an example for each of the remaining three types in the "Types of histograms" section
  • let's change the ggridges example... any suggestions?
  • add another sentence explaining the problem with using faceting with stat_function. (It may look correct to students). Also, is there a reason that you used a screenshot instead of code?

Hi Joyce,
Since Anni has already responded to the email, I will just reply right here. We think it is good to go.

For specific points:
ggridges example: How about using the GDP example from the lecture slides?
Screenshot: The screenshot came from last semester's problem set. I was thinking if I put the code on, it would give away too much information for Pset1. Even though it is incorrect.

Great, I'll send out a notice to the class.

Yes, the GDP example is a good choice.

I thought that might be the case re: screenshot. Let's keep it as is. Thanks!

Hi Joyce and Anni,
Happy Chinese New Year!

Updates:

  • Changed ggridges to GDP example(Added corresponding dataset)
  • Added examples for Histogram type
  • Rephrased explanation on faceting for normal curve
  • Centered most screenshots
  • Added blank line between each section
