• Describe the goal of the project.

Determine what sports are favorable to younger athletes at the professional level. Determine which sports have a larger proportion of older athletes. How age determines an athletes probability of being victorious

• Describe the data used or collected.

A mix of categorical and continuous variables. Each row is an Olympic competition. Variables included refer to the physical and personal characteristics of the athlete, their chosen sport, the games they competed in and the year and finally the country the athlete is representing.

• Describe how the research question will be answered, e.g. what approaches/methods will be used.

Not very clear however a mix of tables and plots points toward a standard graphing and interpretation of results.

• Is there anything that is unclear from the proposal?

Dataset needs to be described in greater detail as the only description can be taken from the logical meanings behind the variable names.

• Provide constructive feedback on how the team might be able to improve their project.

The dataset provides a great opportunity for in-depth analysis. It would be interesting to see which countries produce the youngest athletes and if these countries favor putting forward younger or older athletes to the Olympic games.

• What aspect of this project are you most interested in and would like to see highlighted in the presentation.

Which sports have a high number of older athletes.

• Provide constructive feedback on any issues with file and/or code organization.

File organisation is sound.
