Lab 05 - Part 1 - Data #19

Open gzbib opened 4 years ago

gzbib commented 4 years ago

Hello Sir @lecy

I just wanted to double-check if I understood this part right since the whole lab is based on the data creation part. The question is regarding the below:

Omit cases with growth rates above 200%

Should we assume that dropping tracts with homes that cost less than 1000 is enough or should we do the following:

mhv.growth[ mhv.growth > 2 ] <- NA

Thank you

After dropping tracts with value less than $1,000 in year=2000 I would check growth rates.

If you still have some large ones, I would truncate the data.

I suspect you will have to do both.
