Split

To calculate the proportions for all years, you will use the function female_residence_prop() defined in the previous exercise along with three other functions:

  • split(): To "split" the mort data by year
  • Map(): To "apply" the function female_residence_prop() to each of the subsets returned from split()
  • Reduce(): To combine the results obtained from Map()

In this exercise, you will "split" the mort data by year.
