This is the homestretch! All my focus is on writing the final paper, which is due about a week from now! I’m fighting on and wishing for success!
Week 10
This week, more of my report has been written. More thought has been done about how I want to organize the paper, how I’m going to integrate figures into the paper, and how I want to state my findings in a concise manner. This resulted in the Analytic Methods and Results sections to be written and/or edited. The Results section is not finished yet, but more will be added over time.
Thank you for reading!
Week 9
This week, it was discovered that the latitude and longitude for each terrorist attack wasn’t as accurate as initially thought. Although the latitude and longitude are extremely accurate, as they both have 4 or more decimal places, it was thought that the location recorded was the exact place where the terrorist attacks occurred. It turns out that the latitude and longitude for each attack in a given town are the same, meaning that the data is showing that all terrorist attacks are only occurring in one specific location, no matter the timespan. This observation will be written as a source of error or limitation with the data given.
Thank you for reading!
Week 8
For this week, I have been making the figures to be both integrated into the report and into the appendix. Importance has been placed into trying to make all the graphics the same size so that the text size is consistent with each figure. The figures that will be in the report include bar graphs, line graphs, geographic maps, and circle graphs. There are over 20 figures so far, but this may change in the future.
