Where can I find more information about the data?
Information about the data set can be found in the data tab. You can also explore the data dictionary.
Once I have joined RStudio Cloud, how do I get the data?
To begin the analysis, run pchallenge::start_challenge(). This will prompt you to accept the terms of this challenge. If you accept, the dataset (called df) will be added to your global environment. Open the instructions.Rmd file for detailed instructions.
My RStudio Cloud instance terminated unexpectedly and now the data is no longer in my global environment. What do I do?
If R terminates unexpectedly, it is possible to lose the contents of your global environment. To get the dataset back, run pchallenge::start_challenge() again.
How do I turn in my results?
To turn in your results, run pchallenge::turn_in_challenge(). This will first check that you have consented to the terms of this challenge. If you have, it will then prompt you to copy your R Report. The file will automatically open,

Then it will bring you to a SurveyMonkey survey where you can input your analysis results.
This will open a browser with a final survey to submit your results. If you do not have pop-ups enabled, you will get an error message - click “Try Again” and the survey should load.
The survey will first ask you to paste your “R Report” into a text box. You will then be asked a few demographic questions. Finally, you will be asked to submit a short description of your analysis along with your final p-value for the association between between the standby posted wait time for the amusement park ride and how many units of merchandise were sold that day.
Once I have joined RStudio Cloud, where do I find the project?
Click the “Project” link on the top. You should then see a project called base-project. If you have not already saved your own version of base-project, click this. If you have already saved your own copy of base-project, it should appear here (it will say “Derived from: base-project by Lucy D’Agostino McGowan” beneath it).
Can I submit more than once?
At the moment, we only allow one submission per participant. You are welcome to try multiple methods before your submission and submit the smallest p-value that you are able to obtain.
