It’s my turn; how the dynamic has shifted! After a week dabbling in the various projects and research interests of these graduate students, I am now trying to learn about forecasting using time series. Basically, the task is using data to make predictions.
However, this activity requires some computer science knowledge. Thus, I am trying to gain minimal proficiency in R. It’s tough going but rewarding when small success find their way to the console.
What’s nice is how easy it is to graph large datasets. One quick function call, and, whazzam, there it is. Off to explore some more…
