MAIN OBJECTIVE OF THE ASSESSMENT
In this assessment, you will be analysing some metrics in relation to how they reflect quality an open-source
system and preparing a report on the results of your analysis. The aim of your report will be to discuss whether,
based on your analysis, aspects of the systems show good or poor quality. You will choose data from a system
and you will write a report based on your findings.

Note: Use Excel (or any equivalent statistical tool of your choice) to analyse the data in your system.

DESCRIPTION OF THE ASSESSMENT
1. Select all the rows of a system of your choice from the large dataset called “coursework_data.xlsx”
provided in the CS3003 assessment folder. The system name is in column A of the dataset. Store those
rows in a separate dataset so that you can begin your analysis of them.
2. Next, as well as BUGS (in column N) choose an additional **FOUR** metrics from the dataset columns
that you believe will help explore this system. These metrics start in column D in the dataset. You
should recognise these metrics from the lab sheets that you have been working on. So, in total you’ll
have 5 metrics to work with.
3. Now, analyse the data in your chosen system. Explore, the relationship between BUGS and each of the
other four metrics you chose and discuss the relationships you find. Produce any charts and graphs
(e.g. bar charts, box plots and/or scatter plots, etc.) showing the features of each relationship.
4. You should also use other statistics (i.e., correlation) to identify any major differences in the data (see
the previous lab sheets for what you’ve done in this way already). Try to understand any differences
and similarities and explain why you think these differences may exist. Is there anything noteworthy
(unusual, interesting or surprising) resulting from your analysis? You will need to document all your
findings in your report.

graphs/charts/plots/correlations etc. summarising what your analysis of the relationship between BUGS and
the other four metrics has shown. Provide a discussion of each of your findings; this discussion should highlight
important features of your results and comment on what those results mean. **Each graph/chart provided by
you should be numbered and given a caption (e.g., Figure 1. BUGS versus CBO) so that it can be referred to
