• For this assignment, you will minimally edit some of the already written R and Python scripts and submit the modified files.
• There are two things you should submit:
  1. introducion.pdf : a pdf file compiled using R markdown
  2. URL to your Google Colab notebook page
• Tip: Search TODO to find lines that need to be edited. </aside>

Using R

Install R and R studio

If you don’t have R yet, please go ahead and download R and R studio. R studio allows a neat visual interface with R, so I’d recommend you downloading it.

• Visit https://posit.co/download/rstudio-desktop/ and download R and R studio.
• We will use what is called an R markdown. This blog has quick introduction to it: https://afit-r.github.io/r_markdown. Each “chunk” always begins with a {r}` and end with a `````. As you can see in the blog, you can include different options like {r echo=False}` in the beginning of a chunk, depending on what you like. We won't worry about these optional settings for now. But always make sure to begin and end the chunk with those.

Introduction to R

If you are less familiar with R, see Part 2 in https://learningstatisticswithr.com/lsr-0.6.pdf

Download introduction.Rmd

You will work with this file. (You should save it as a text file and change the extension, or you can also download the file directly from Canvas.)

Edit file

• If you don’t have R markdown, you can easily download it by entering:

  install.packages("rmarkdown")
  

• You will see a guideline inside the R markdown (.Rmd) script. Your task is to assign the variables with your response.

• The first chunk will look like this:

  # Assign variables
  ```{r}
  # TODO: Assign a value to the variable with your name
  NAME <- "Sanghee Kim"
  
  # TODO: Replace/assign values with your
  #       linguistic research interest, experience, and programming knowledge.
  #       Also talk about some things you like!
  interest <- "Your topics of interest in linguistic research."
  experience <- "Your background or experience related to linguistic research."
  favorite_fruit <- 
  hobby <- 
  

  
  You should replace some variables with your response, and fill in the missing values for the variables (e.g., “favorite_fruit”).
