pwt_sample

These are some macroeconomic data for 21 select (rich) countries. I've used
 these data before to discuss issues of grouping and skew in cross-sectional data.

datasets

This is a collection of various kinds of data with broad uses for teaching.
My students, and academics like me who teach the same topics I teach, should find
this useful if their teaching workflow is also built around the R programming
language. The applications are multiple but mostly cluster on topics of statistical
methodology, international relations, and political economy.
