Hello, George, I am having an error when I try to render the gfm file. @gvegayon @chipmanj
Error in eval(xfun::parse_only(name)) : object 'gfm' not found

Hi @gvegayon , I have questions on the Part 3. I don't think I understood how to solve the problem. Starting with Question 1, you are asking what is the median station in terms of temperature, wind speed, and atmospheric pressure. Are we supposed to find one station that has the median value of temperature, and another station with the medical wind speed, and another station that has the median atmospheric pressure? @LindaAmoafo said that there are multiple stations with the median value so we can't choose a unique station.

Were you able to compile it using quarto, @rberch?

@hyejung0 and @LindaAmoafo, one way to approach the problem is to look at the average values at a given time window for each station. In other words, collapse the dataset by station and compute the average temperature, wind speed, and pressure. Once you have that, you can compute the quantiles for each of the average values and find the station closest to each of them.
This week, although we will continue looking into R fundamentals, we will make some room (lots of it) for the R package
data.table
(here is why). Here are the readings for the week:Readings
