Learning Journal Reflective Comments:

Write short reflective comments or notes about your learning activities during the week. It is
highly recommended that you make these entries on a daily basis. You will be assessed on the
completeness of your Learning Journal, and the quality of your self-reflection.

You should date each entry, and use clear titles and sub-headings. These entries should be brief,
direct sentences indicating quick comments or notes such as:

* when you completed each step in the Learning Guide during the week,

* any problems or unexpected events that occurred during the week (including

problems understanding new or old material), and

* any other noteworthy that might affect your performance in this class.

There is no need to include personal information or details of family events, but be sure to
mention the existence of any situations that will positively or negatively affect your ability to
focus on the classwork.

Learning Unit

My journey during that week starts in November 18, with the learning unit that I started to
read each part. I also read part 1 of the annoted book the following day November 19, I
also install the R program. the installation was quite easy on windows 10, and also I
participated in the discussion forum. The November 20 I started practicing the exercise
and I wrote my learning journal.

Issues encountered

I am quite new to programing and it is difficult for me to understand the practical part of
the learning this week. I hope that will be easier for me in the long run with practicing.

2. Vocabulary and R functions

Enter the following command in R to read a simple help page about the table() command (this is
for your information, you do not need to show the output):

?table

Now enter the following command and describe the output of the table() command. What does
the first row of numbers in table() output represent? What does the second row of output
represent?

x <- c(5, 8, 4, 1, 5, 6, 5, 9, 4, 2, 5, 7, 5, 3, 6, 4, 5, 3, 7, 6)

table(x)
[optional: You can test your theory by altering the numbers and rerunning the table command.]

R2- The first row of numbers in table () output represents the arguments

The second row of output represents the R object

3. Task

a) Read section 1.5 in the Yakir textbook. If you were a teacher and had 30 students in in your
class and wanted to know the class average on the first quiz, would you use a parameter or a
statistic? Why?

b) If you wanted to know how many people in your country recognize the name of you new
company, would you use a parameter or a statistic? Why?

R3 a)- I would use a parameter because what I want to know is related to the whole
population of the 30 students
b) I would use a statistic because what I want to is related to a sample of the population of
the country. The number of people recognizes the name of my new company is would be a
sample of the population of the whole country.
