I think we can mostly just update earlier labs... but we shall see

I haven't been uncommenting, just retyping below. My group seemed like this wasn't an issue...

possible solution: include hint/format under the question, e.g.,

  1. Summarize the data to get the max and min of length using the summarize function.
# General format 
{data to use} %>% 
    summarize({summary column name} = {operator(source column)})

I was also surprised that this was a challenge for my group - as it wasn't before, maybe I just describe it differently somehow
