Data from the CDC on all 4 million births in the US in 2014
These data provide diverse opportunities for teaching statistics using short, genuine research projects. See the notes in vignettes/intro_stats.html
.
The package provides three data files via data()
:
Natality_2014_100k
--- a random sample of size 100k from the complete set of 4 million CDC cases.Natality_2014_10k
--- a random subsample of size 10k from (1).Natality_2014_1k
--- a random subsample of size 1k from (2).These three files are small enough that loading the package is very fast. Should you want larger data sets, you can access them as described under help("Larger_natality_data_files")
. These larger files are so big that making them available via data()
would dramatically slow attaching the package.
See the documentation for Natality_2014_100k
for a description of the variables, etc.
