  2. Univariate Quantities in R • Our Data • Yes on Proposition 8 by County • Graphical Displays of data • Histogram • Dot Chart • Box Plots • Stem and Leaf • Strip Plot

  3. First, the basic statistics in R • Mean (by county): • > mean(proportionforprop8) • [1] 56.7202 • Standard deviation: • > sd(proportionforprop8) • [1] 13.39508 • Five-number summary: • > fivenum(proportionforprop8) • [1] 23.50787 46.93203 59.25364 68.03883 75.37070
