Added data for US recession dates and congressional control.. they may make a nice overlay on some of the plots

bopangpsy commented 8 years ago

I was trying to explore the data I downloaded from Github. US Congress and Recession Data.csv and Unemployment.csv. I opened them in R but got nothing but a bunch of something like " <link crossorigin="anonymous". Anywhere else I can get the data?

I was getting something same. Downloaded the unemployment data set and read it in R. Metadata occupies first few rows. So you might want to skip it and then let R read the dataset.

Letme know if that helped.

Just got it work! Thanks!

JestonBlu commented 8 years ago

You should not be having that issue if you are pointed to the CSV files. The first row is the row name and its all data after that... paste your code and ill take a look. Only the Excel file has extra descritive info at the top

Thanks! I now use files cloned to my disk instead of those downloaded. It works well.

I am just getting ready to watch the most recently posted videos, so please forgive me if this has already been answered. Anyone know what our next deadline is and what we are supposed to focus on? I want to do some exploratory analysis overlaying some of the data we have with other data I downloaded, but I also want to make sure I am making progress towards our next goal.

I have updated the data prep script and created an additional dataset econ.sa with all variables seasonally adjusted for those of you who want to play with a multivariate model. Dont forget to git pull to get the latest changes.. also just a reminder that you should only need to run load("Data/data_prep.rda") to import the processed data frames into R.

Nice job!
