There are an error in the Statistics Challenges, as it defers from the instructor notes. Also, the idea behind the exercise is to get same result from both methods, while indicates the easiness of using the unique method

Hi Abdula!

Thank you for contributing to the lesson. Our data section describesplot_id column as "ID of a particular site". So, I think it makes sense to keep using the word "site" when talking about elements of that column. The next question is whether variable site_names is reasonable or if we should switch to plot_names. I think both variable names are reasonable. If you feel that site_names is not a proper name, I suggest rephrasing the second sentence to:

You may call it plot_names or site_names.

What do you think?

Thank you for contributing, @abdulanl. I am going to close this pull request due to inactivity. However, if you wish to return and address the comments made by the former Maintainer above, please feel free to reopen and update it before the end of this month, or open a new PR after the infrastructure transition has taken place in May.
