And part of that is having my students run statistical programs to data sets

because the temptation to not use the program is so high, I have to make the data something ridiculous

Case in point, my first data set was a listing of meteor landings, the size, scale, and date they landed

that had... 30,000 entries?

point is, you couldn't do it by hand

Well, I'm at it again and I want to pull out a different data set because what was done last year might be used by this year's students

well, what I found was

Crime_Data_from_2020_to_Present, LA

First of all, I can't use it. There is 970,000 listings. My computer about bricked itself trying to analyze the stuff

That said, uh

...some of the results were pretty

...well, here

26.2% being less than a year old... yiiikes, man

Mean age was 29.17, St. Dev was 21.95

This was also interesting

now, it should be noted these aren't fatalities, they are "criminal offenses involving someone"

...Can't say I'm surprised the group of weapons with BB gun in it is so high. People really treat those things as more harmless than they are.
