ExData_Plotting

1st course project for Coursera Exploratory Data Analysis "exdata-032"

The assignment is to create some exploratory data graphs for electricity consumption data. Download and unzip the file from the link below and then you can use the R scripts to generate a number of plots.

Dataset: Electric power consumption [20Mb] Download link: https://d396qusza40orc.cloudfront.net/exdata%2Fdata%2Fhousehold_power_consumption.zip

Description: Measurements of electric power consumption in one household with a one-minute sampling rate over a period of almost 4 years. Different electrical quantities and some sub-metering values are available.

The following descriptions of the 9 variables in the dataset are taken from the UCI web site:

Date: Date in format dd/mm/yyyy Time: time in format hh:mm:ss Global_active_power: household global minute-averaged active power (in kilowatt) Global_reactive_power: household global minute-averaged reactive power (in kilowatt) Voltage: minute-averaged voltage (in volt) Global_intensity: household global minute-averaged current intensity (in ampere) Sub_metering_1: energy sub-metering No. 1 (in watt-hour of active energy). It corresponds to the kitchen, containing mainly a dishwasher, an oven and a microwave (hot plates are not electric but gas powered). Sub_metering_2: energy sub-metering No. 2 (in watt-hour of active energy). It corresponds to the laundry room, containing a washing-machine, a tumble-drier, a refrigerator and a light. Sub_metering_3: energy sub-metering No. 3 (in watt-hour of active energy). It corresponds to an electric water-heater and an air-conditioner.
