 2. Using base R commands, draw a histogram of the scores. Change the breaks in your histogram until you think they best represent your data.
 
 ```{r}
 
+hist(D1$scores, breaks = 100)

 4. Now using the colorbrewer package (RColorBrewer; http://colorbrewer2.org/#type=sequential&scheme=BuGn&n=3) design a pallette and assign it to the groups in your data on the histogram.
 
 ```{r}
 library(RColorBrewer)

 #The top section of palettes are sequential, the middle section are qualitative, and the lower section are diverging.

 6. Now simulate a new variable that describes the number of logins that students made to the educational game. They should vary from 1-25.
 
 ```{r}
+D1$login <- sample(1:25, 100, replace = TRUE)
 
 ```
 
 7. Plot the relationships between logins and scores. Give the plot a title and color the dots according to interest group.
 
 ```{r}
-
+D1$col1 <- ifelse (D1$interest == "music", "red", "green")
+plot(D1$login, D1$scores, col = D1$col1)
 
 ```
 
 
 8. R contains several inbuilt data sets, one of these in called AirPassengers. Plot a line graph of the the airline passengers over time using this data set.
 
 ```{r}
-
+AP <- data.frame (AirPassengers)
+plot(AP)
+head(AP)
 ```
 
 
 9. Using another inbuilt data set, iris, plot the relationships between all of the variables in the data set. Which of these relationships is it appropraiet to run a correlation on? 
 
 ```{r}
-
+pairs(iris)
 ```
 
 10. Finally use the knitr function to generate an html document from your work. If you have time, try to change some of the output using different commands from the RMarkdown cheat sheet.
