[BlindMath] BrailleR - Viewing histograms with 200 breaks?

[Jonathan Godfrey]

Hello,

At some stage you will find it useful to start doing your work in R markdown instead of the console. You'll then have the solution you need in terms of access. The resources you've been pointed towards have the range of solutions for this problem, but in the end, I strongly recommend R markdown, especially for anyone who already has some markdown experience.

I'm willing to bet though that the teacher is wanting people to see what happens as a way of learning. The points being made might be seen quite easily in the VI() command's text output, but doing a lot of thinking about what will happen might do pretty much the same thing. FWIW: the answer very definitely depends on the sample size and the shape of the sample's distribution.

Jonathan

Subject: [BlindMath] BrailleR - Viewing histograms with 200 breaks?

Hello,
I'm wondering if there is an easy way to save the output of the VI command to a text file? My instructor wants to know what we notice when viewing hosts with different breaks, including 10, 50, and 200. Sadly, my window is too small for even 50, so I'm wondering if there are any recommendations for viewing this insane number of data points, or even exporting the output to a file? I can create a script to output to a text file, but that's a bit annoying if your work is already in the R console.
Thank you,
