A role play. "I am your new boss. I am in charge of production at ABC Beverage and you are a team of data scientists reporting to me. My leadership has told me that new regulations are requiring us to understand our manufacturing process, the predictive factors and be able to report to them our predictive model of PH." This project designs a Cubist Model to predict the pH of sample beverages for a fictional company.

Some define statistics as the field that focuses on turning information into knowledge. The first step in that process is to summarize and describe the raw information -- the data. In this lab we explore flights, specifically a random sample of domestic flights that departed from the three major New York City airports in 2013. We will generate simple graphical and numerical summaries of data on these flights and explore delay times. Since this is a large data set, along the way you'll also learn the indispensable skills of data processing and subsetting.

Comparing the proportions of boys and girls born amongst two datasets: The Arbuthnot dataset from the 18th century Present dataset from the 19th century

Week 5 of Data Science. Basketball players who make several baskets in succession are described as having a hot hand. Fans and players have long believed in the hot hand phenomenon, which refutes the assumption that each shot is independent of the next. However, a 1985 paper by Gilovich, Vallone, and Tversky collected evidence that contradicted this belief and showed that successive shots are independent events. This paper started a great controversy that continues to this day, as you can see by Googling "hot hand basketball." For this assignment, we used an open-source dataset of Kobe's shot data from @OpenIntro to focus on the performance of one player: Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers. His performance against the Orlando Magic in the 2009 NBA Finals earned him the title Most Valuable Player and many spectators commented on how he appeared to show a hot hand. From my analysis, I debunk the theory of Kobe (RIP) having a hot hand. #RIPKobe #DataScience #hotHandTheory #Probability #independentEvents #GoogleCloud #NBA #Lakers #OrlandoMagic
