Exploratory Data Analysis - Peer Assestment 1

Loading the data

The dataset is not included in the repo, you have to download it by yourself. Set as working directory the directory that contains the dataset in order to make the scripts load the data.

Scripts

In the base folder you can find the 4 scripts that generate the figures.

##Images In 'figure' directory you can find the requested png images.

#Dataset description

This assignment uses data from the UC Irvine Machine Learning Repository, a popular repository for machine learning datasets. In particular, we will be using the "Individual household electric power consumption Data Set" which I have made available on the course web site:

  • Dataset: Electric power consumption [20Mb]

  • Description: Measurements of electric power consumption in one household with a one-minute sampling rate over a period of almost 4 years. Different electrical quantities and some sub-metering values are available.

The following descriptions of the 9 variables in the dataset are taken from the UCI web site:

  1. Date: Date in format dd/mm/yyyy
  2. Time: time in format hh:mm:ss
  3. Global_active_power: household global minute-averaged active power (in kilowatt)
  4. Global_reactive_power: household global minute-averaged reactive power (in kilowatt)
  5. Voltage: minute-averaged voltage (in volt)
  6. Global_intensity: household global minute-averaged current intensity (in ampere)
  7. Sub_metering_1: energy sub-metering No. 1 (in watt-hour of active energy). It corresponds to the kitchen, containing mainly a dishwasher, an oven and a microwave (hot plates are not electric but gas powered).
  8. Sub_metering_2: energy sub-metering No. 2 (in watt-hour of active energy). It corresponds to the laundry room, containing a washing-machine, a tumble-drier, a refrigerator and a light.
  9. Sub_metering_3: energy sub-metering No. 3 (in watt-hour of active energy). It corresponds to an electric water-heater and an air-conditioner.
