Prompt:

Asking good questions is a valuable skill to have - asking questions in an online setting is both easier and harder than asking questions in person: we can prepare to ask a question but we are also expected to prepare. The links posted here give some advice on how to ask good questions:

Follow these links and read through the advice given, then

  1. Pick at least one question from stackoverflow or the R help and answer it.

Write a blog post answering the following questions:

  1. Document which question you answered (link to your answer).

I answered one question in StackOverflow, here is the link to the question.

My StackOverflow profile is Atefeha1995.

  1. Relate your experience of answering the question to your reading.

This is the first time I am working on the StackOverflow website. Based on my reading, the questions and answers on this website need to follow special instructions. I tried to answer a question that I know the answer to while making sure that:

  • My answer is short, complete, and clear.

  • I followed the StackOverflow structure for writing.

  • My answer and code are reproducible.

  • I included the code sample regarding the required code formatting, etc.

Instructions to follow.
