NYPD Shooting Analytics

This is Final Capstone Project for ALY15 80625 Intermediate Analytics SEC 04 Spring 2021 CPS.
Primarily to learn Data Analytics, Descriptive and Inferential Stastics using R.
This paper summarizes our preliminary (Exploratory Data Analysis EDA) analysis on the selected dataset, the NYPD shooting incident dataset for this group project. It will share some insightful results from the EDA and descriptive statistics. Further, this paper identifies a set of methods used to answer the business questions on the dataset and justifies those methods using statistics and analytics concepts.
