Overall, great work on your second MDA deliverable! Please see more detailed feedback below:
Ex 1.1: Great research questions.
Ex 1.2: Great summary tables and good visualizations for all four questions, good analysis, and interpretation of the results.
Question 2 (graphing): you plotted two separate variables (diameter and height) on the same y-axis titled height_mean, which makes the graph hard to interpret without appropriate legends and a more general y-title. Given that your x-variable is tree names (i.e. categorical), you should not be connecting individual points with a line - that can only be done when your x-variable is numeric.
Question 3 (graphing): the graph is impossible to read and interpret, unclear what the x-axis should be, unclear what the colors correspond to, unclear what is being measured on the y-axis.
Question 4 (graphing): it is unclear what is the purpose of plotting tree ID against neighborhoods when you can't see the neighborhood names, when ID just corresponds to random numeric values, and when there is no color legend. Please make sure that in future submissions, all graphs should be legible on their own.
Ex 1.3: Great summary of what you are able to infer from the conducted analysis and what could be done next.
Ex 2.1: Great explanation as to why your data is tidy.
Ex 2.2: Great transformation from tidy to untidy format and from untidy to tidy format.
Ex 2.3: Great further analysis of the two selected questions, great use of various dplyr functions throughout.
Reproducibility, readability, and repo organization: The README.md file could be improved by having a list of all the files in your repo with their descriptions, as well as having more information about the purpose of this repo and more detailed instructions on how to run the code. For Milestone 3, make sure that each milestone is located in its own folder and each folder contains its own README.md file. Milestone 2.Rmd file is clearly structured, nicely formatted, and easy to read. Thanks for knitting your .Rmd as .md document.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Grades will be posted soon on Canvas.
