For week 6 we did a flash gel. The results are at the top. I will also be helping Chad and Stacey with their project and learning about bioinformatics. The picture just above shows the genes for different species of deinococcus.

 Hello! This week I read Chapter 4 in  Data Visualization of R by Rob Kabacoff.  Last week I read Chapter 3 on univariate graphs, which plot data about a single variable. Chapter 4 is about bivariate graph, which are used to show the relationship between 2 variables. The type of graph used depends on whether the variables are categorical or quantitative. Categorical vs. Categorical Much like a univariate graph, a bivariate graph typically uses various types of bar charts to display categorical data. There are 3 different types of bar charts used, and I'll display pictures of them all. This time, I am not going to go into detail about modifications such as color, size, etc. because it is the same as for univariate graphs. The data set used displays the relationship between automobile class and drive type: 4 wheel drive, front-wheel drive, and rear-wheel drive. Stacked bar chart The stacked bar chart is the default bar chart in R, so there are no special commands to use thi...

 Hello! This week I looked at both time-dependent graphs in chapter 7, and statistical models in chapter 8. Time-dependent Graphs Time-dependent graphs are used to show change over a period of time.  The most common graph type used is a time series line graph, but you an also use dumbbell charts and slope graphs. Time series Time series graphs are a set of quantitative values at different time points that are an equal length of time apart. The data used for this chapter is the Economics time series included in the ggplot2 package. This shows economic data from January 1967 through January 2015. Using the scale_x_date function, you can reformat the dates. Dumbbell charts Dumbbell charts are good for showing the change in time between 2 time points for several variables. This chart uses the geom_dumbbell function from the ggalt package. For some reason my RStudio is not liking the ggalt or the geom_dumbbell() function and it keeps giving me an error. I tried looking into it ...

How I Think I Want to Use My Degree and Why

 This is a tough question for me, because lately I've been jumping around between career ideas.  My major is Applied Computing with a concentration in cybersecurity. I would like to work in cybersecurity, but with Applied Computing being so broad, I'll be qualified for all kinds of computing paths such as machine learning, software engineering, and (as I recently found out from a job ad) even some bioinformatics positions. I have the most interest in machine learning, bioinformatics, and cybersecurity. If I'm being honest, I don't necessarily have the have the cybersecurity concentration because I for sure want to go into cyber security. I just want to give myself more options since the cybersecurity field is extremely desperate for workers right now. If I end up with a job in cybersecurity after school, then that's great. And if not, I'm also ok with that.  A company that I would specifically like to work for one day is Microsoft, however, I couldn't say wh...
