Problem Set 4
 Prof. Jack Reilly
 F2025

Before attempting this assignment, be sure to follow the instructions noted in Week 3 page under “Course Content”.
Data Work
Setup
1.	Create a GitHub repository for this assignment. (Don’t forget a readme file and a .gitignore file!) It’s OK if it is a private repository.
2.	Generate a Quarto document (like last week). Title it DWV Assignment 4.qmd. Answer all questions for this assignment in this quarto document.
3.	Practice good file management: keep all documents for this assignment in your assignment folder (github repo) dedicated to just this assignment. It is OK - it’s advisable, actually - to have the datasets themselves in a separate folder.
Part 1. Lines
1.	Draw a y=4x+3 on a plot that ranges from -20 to +20 on both x and y.
2.	Label the line appropriately next to itself.
3.	Color the line in an interesting color! And make it dashed.
4.	Bonus Use a combination of the above options (plus others, if you feel like looking them up) to create the wildest looking series of lines on a graph that you can. (Remember, you can overplot lines!)
Part 2. Protected Lands
Consider the protected_lands.csv dataset. This dataset contains information about a sample of countries sourced from the World Bank. Protected Lands represents the terrestrial protected land of a country as a percentage of total land area. GDP is represented in the dataset on a per capita (gdp_percap) as well as total basis (with total being measured in billions - tot_gdp_billions).
1.	Find the mean, standard deviation, and range of each of the three variables: protected lands, GDP per capita, and total GDP.
2.	Create a scatterplot where “protected lands” is on the Y axis and GDP per capita is on the X axis. Place a title on the graph and labels on the X and Y axis appropriately.
3.	Create a scatterplot where “protected lands” is on the Y axis and total GDP is on the X axis. Place a title on the graph and labels on the X and Y axis appropriately.
4.	Regress “protected lands” on GDP per capita.
5.	Creat a scatterplot where “protected lands” is on the Y axis and GDP per capita is on the X axis. Then, overlay the plot with a best fit line.
6.	Regress “protected land” on total GDP.
7.	Creat a scatterplot where “protected lands” is on the Y axis and total is on the X axis. Then, overlay the plot with a best fit line.
Submission
1.	Render your quarto file to .html and .docx.
2.	Push your completed assignment, including your .html and .docx files, to your GitHub repo.
3.	Either:
–	Ensure the repo is public, or
–	If it is private, share the repo with me (I’m @jacklreilly on GitHub).
4.	On Blackboard, under assignment 4, place a link to the repo so that I can click straight through to it.
