WorldCup2018 Prediction

According to this approach here is my attempt to do some predictions for the FIFA World Cup 2018:

  1. Fetch quoted odds from https://www.oddschecker.com/football/world-cup/winner using fetchData.R
  2. Transform them to odds and calculate aggregated probabilities using calcProbabilities.R
  3. Run the simulations via the given java program using probabilites2018xxxx.csv as input.
  4. Copy all csv-files to the app folder and view the results in the shiny app.

This app is also running on shinyapps.io: https://wittmaan.shinyapps.io/FIFA_WORLD_CUP_2018_Prediction/
