Baseball: Arranging Tables

A new dataset from the Lahman Baseball Database: 108 team-season records, 12 teams, nine years (2010–2018), six quantitative attributes. This package does not use the instructor's fallback dataset.

Loading the bundled dataset…

1. Record your own radial-chart ranking

Do this before viewing the other charts or inspecting numerical data. Look only at the donut below. Choose the five teams you think have the largest slices, from largest to fifth largest. Make your own first guesses; a wrong guess is a valid result.

Your first recorded ranking is saved in this browser and included in the report. It is not replaced by the correct answers.

3. Your name and public dataset

Open GitHub Gist. Set the filename to hw7_baseball.csv, paste the copied CSV into the large contents box, then choose Create public gist. On the new gist, click Raw and copy the browser's URL.

The charts work locally; verification connects them to the exact dataset you will submit.

4. Publish in VizHub and build your PDF

After verifying the raw URL and recording your ranking, click Copy VizHub code. Open the VizHub HTML Starter, sign in and fork it. In your fork's index.html, click inside the code editor, press Ctrl+A, then Ctrl+V. Save/run and make it public.

Paste the address of your own fork, not the starter's address.

The report includes ten chart captures, answers, code snippets, both public links and your actual ranking. Review it, then print to PDF.

Save or restore your setup and first ranking

A backup helps when moving to another browser. Restore only your own previously recorded initial ranking.
