Exercise

Choosing the right exercise type

Let's look at an exercise on importing data. The students have just learned the following things:

The read.csv() function can be used to import CSV files in R.
Columns can be converted to a factor using as.factor().
To inspect the structure of the resulting dataframe str() can be called.

This will be the first exercise where students combine these concepts, so it is a good idea to break down this exercise into smaller steps. Each step will allow them to focus on a specific concept.
