17 September agenda:

I am home sick with COVID. This means that Jada and Nico will be running class today. However, I’ll be at home (grading your projects, since I feel well enough to do that now), and can give instant answers to anything on Discord or Slack or by email. I can also talk to anyone on the phone/Zoom who wants.

All I was planning on doing today is working on Project 2. This is the sort of thing where you should work on your own code and data and ask questions as you have them. However, I’ve written a detailed set of notes that outlines a framework for you to work in, and has some common “Why do my data look like this?” scenarios.

Here are the Notes on Project 2.

I suggest you read sections 1 and 2, then hack on your code; if you see something weird in your data, look in Section 3 to see if there’s a discussion of it.

I hope I’ll be back Thursday! Note: I am delaying the due date of Project 2 until before class next Tuesday, but I expect that you will be done with everything except your writeup by class Thursday. We’ll discuss how to do a good project report in class Thursday; then you have all weekend to write it up.
