Exercise

Number of males and females admitted

The goal of this exercise is to determine the numbers of male and female applicants who got admitted and rejected. Specifically, we want to find out how many males are admitted and how many are rejected. And similarly we want to find how many females are admitted and how many are rejected.

To do so we will use the count() function from the dplyr package.

In one step, count() groups the data and then tallies the number of observations in each level of the grouping variable. These counts are available under a new variable called n.
