Questions below ask for your insight about the data. There is no single and constructed way to the right answer. Objective of this assignment is to help you help yourself to get data from outside resources, analyze the data, validate your model and convey your conclusions in a clear and reproducible way. You are expected to use R Markdown outputs on your Progress Journals to show your work.

  1. Use esoph data set to see if (o)esophageal cancer is related to alcohol consumption, age or tobacco consumption. (Just write esoph to your R console to get the data.)

  2. Use the Young People Survey’s Hobbies & Interests category answers to infer “meaning” from the data. You are expected to use methods described in the lecture notes. But also you are welcome to use different methods as well. You can get the data from Kaggle.
