fpts_proj

[jtpolish]

Hi, I was wondering if you might be able to help me manually load fpts_proj projections rather than use: set.seed(100) n <- nrow(data) data$fpts_proj <- rnorm(n, data$fpts_avg) View(data)

I have a subscription to fantasydata.com and would like to input their projections manually.

Thank you for your help!

Hi @jtpolish . Yes you can definitely do that! You'll have to read in the fantasy data into a data frame first and then just assign the fpts_proj column to that data. It would look something like this:

library(coach)
library(readr)

# read in the fantasydata
myprojs <- read_csv("path/to/fantasydata.csv")

# all your other normal coach stuff
...

# add your custom projections to the data (assuming the fantasy data col with projections is called "fpts"
data$fpts_proj <- myprojs$fpts

# continue on with optimization
...

Does that help? If you attach the fantasydata here I can also take a look and give you more detailed code instructions. Let me know.
