README

This REPO contains the run_analysis code that was implemented to solve the following questions:

  • Merges the training and the test sets to create one data set.
  • Extracts only the measurements on the mean and standard deviation for each measurement.
  • Uses descriptive activity names to name the activities in the data set
  • Appropriately labels the data set with descriptive variable names.
  • From the data set in step 4, creates a second, independent tidy data set with the average of each variable for each activity and each subject.

To solve the question, I've followed this steps, as described in run_analysis function:

  • I've assumed that the Samsung data is in your working directory
  • Build three test files (subject_test, X_test and Y_test)
  • Build three train files (subject_train, X_train and Y_train)
  • With the above files I've created unique Test Dataset. Loading all dataset as column in one Test tidy dataset (called testDS)
  • With the above files I've created unique train Dataset. Loading all dataset as column in one train tidy dataset (called trainDS)
  • Merges the training and the test sets to create one data set (called uniqueDS)
  • I've selected the second column of featuresDS to build the columnNames (line 42)
  • Extracts only the measurements on the mean and standard deviation for each measurement (selectedColumns)
  • From the data set in step 4, creates a second, independent tidy data set with the average of each variable for each activity and each subject (called finalDataFrame)
  • rename the columns through "tolower" function and adding "average" label to make the lecture easier.
  • Write the table to file finalDataFrame.txt
