Module # 4 Programming structure assignment
In this assignment, I analyzed data collected by a local hospital. The dataset includes the following variables:
The analysis involves visualizing the data through boxplots and histograms to understand patterns in blood pressure and visit frequency.
Boxplot of Blood Pressure by Doctor's First Assessment
Patients with a "good" assessment green box have a more consistent and moderate blood pressure, generally ranging between 50 and 150, with most values clustered near the middle of that range. This suggests that patients rated as "good" tend to have stable blood pressure.
Patients with a "bad" assessment red box, on the other hand, have more variability in their blood pressure, ranging from as low as 50 to as high as 100. This wider spread could indicate that patients with more extreme or unpredictable blood pressure tend to be rated poorly by the doctor.
Histogram of Frequency of Visits
The majority of patients have a low frequency of visits, with 4 patients falling in the 0.2 to 0.3 range.
As the visit frequency increases, the number of patients decreases. Only 1 patient falls into the 0.8 to 0.9 range, indicating that most patients don’t visit the hospital regularly.
This shows that most patients visit the hospital infrequently, possibly for emergencies or rare visits, while a smaller number of patients might have more frequent hospital visits.
The data might indicate that the hospital primarily serves patients with occasional needs, with very few individuals requiring regular visits.
