Harp 2015 Fantasy Football Draft Analysis
This is a graphic comparison of Average Draft Position ("ADP") with the ranking of player selection in the 2015 Harp draft. The intent is to illustrate useful metric of player value (ADP) with how they were selected by team in the hopes of uncovering owner selection biases and criteria.

Practical Machine Learning Project
This project will develop a model to fit data taken from a fitness device to predict performance of a bicep curl. There are 5 classes of performance: (Class A) exactly according to the specification, (Class B) throwing the elbows to the front, (Class C) lifting the dumbbell only halfway, (Class D) lowering the dumbbell only halfway, and (Class E) throwing the hips to the front. The data was graciously provided by this source: http://groupware.les.inf.puc-rio.br/har
Analysis of Transmission Factors on MPG
We will examine the `mtcars` data included with R data packages with a goal to fit a linear model to determine if automatic or manual transmission is leads to higher fuel efficiency ("mpg") and we will quantify the difference should it exist.
Analysis of Vitamin C on the Length of Guinea Pig Odontoblast Cells
We will explore the ToothGrowth data set from R and look for statistically significant effects of vitamin C on guinea pig odonotblasts, the cells responsible for tooth growth. The data will be examined by dose and by method of in which vitamin C is administered.
Simulation of the Exponential Distribution and Exploration of the Central Limit Theorem
We will run 1000 simulations where 40 random values are generated from an exponential distribution using the ```rexp()``` function. We will create a vector of the means of the 40 samples and then find the mean of the sample means as well as the standard deviation. We will check the sample means for a Gaussian distribution as an investigation of the Central Limit Theorem.
Analysis of the Health and Economic Impact of Weather Events
This is an analysis of the injuries, fatalities, property damage and crop damage by type of weather event using NOAA data for the United States in all years since 1950.
