📊R Language: Data Summaries without Using a DataFrame

Coming back to the R language after several years and trying to remember some basic functions proved to be a bit challenging, even if the syntax is quite simple. Therefore, I considered putting together a few calls as refresher based on Youden-Beale data. To run the below code you'll need to install the R language and RStudio.

In case you don't have the package installed, run the next two lines:

install.packages("ACSWR") #install the Youden-Beale Experiment package
library(ACSWR)	#load the library

 

str(yb)		#display datasets' structure

  'data.frame': 8 obs. of 2 variables:
$ Preparation_1: int  31  20  18  17  9  8 10  7
$ Preparation_2: int  18  17  14  11 10 7   5  6

yb		#display the dataset

Preparation_1 Preparation_2
1          31                  18
2          20                  17
