Tools for Statistics Instruction using R and Shiny

========================================================

Author: Bruce Dudek at the University at Albany.

The simulation approach in this application simulates samples drawn from a bivariate normal distribution, where the means, sd's, rho, and n are specified by the user. The randomly drawn sample results are displayed in the scatterplot along with the sample pearson product-moment correlation.

If the user wants to see the same kind of scatterplot with their own data, the data upload approach permits this with upload of a .csv file.

For both appraoches, the scatterplots emphasize examination of the "rug plots" of both the raw Y values and the Yhat values. The user can explore how the dispersion of the Yhat values depends on the size of the pearson product-moment correlation.

Built using Shiny by Rstudio and R, the Statistical Programming Language.

The correlation simulation uses the rmvnorm function in the mvtnorm package in R.
