In this workshop we will use palmerpenguins dataset to get a better understanding of the concepts of exploration, visualization, and potential analyses. The Palmer penguins dataset by Allison Horst, Alison Hill, and Kristen Gorman was first made publicly available as an R package.

The goal of palmerpenguins is to provide a great dataset for data exploration & visualization.

The palmerpenguins data contains size measurements, clutch observations, and blood isotope ratios for three penguin species observed on three islands in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica over a study period of three years.
