Overview

About

Maintained by Christopher PrenerFirst published 2018-09-014 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides data sets for teaching statistics and data science courses. It includes a sample of data from John Edmund Kerrich's famous coinflip experiment. These are data that I used for statistics. The package also contains an R Markdown template with the required formatting for assignments in my former courses.
