Introduction to R: Exercises


1. Data types. You are given a bond dataset that contains four variables: rate, rating, default, and company. Check the data type of each of these variables using the function class().


rate <- c(11.05, 3.01) rating <- c("C","AA") default <- c(TRUE, FALSE) company <- c("Reckless_Corp", "Cautious_Corp") # Check the data type of company. class(company) # Check the data type of rate. class(___) # Check the data type of rating. ___(rating) # Check the data type of default. ____ # Check the data type of company. class(company) # Check the data type of rate. class(rate) # Check the data type of rating. class(rating) # Check the data type of default. class(default) test_error() test_function("class") success_msg("Well done! Did the types match your expectations? If not, try printing the variables in the console using print().")
