Another possibility

I thought of another idea for the independent project: Somehow analyzing the multitudes of data in the training logs that I maintain religiously. I'm not really sure how this would work, or even if it would since the data is not from an experiment per se. I guess I will have to wait until I have a better idea of the types of statistical analyses we will be learning about; before then I don't really know what I am talking about... But regardless, it's an interesting idea and I would definitely have fun with it. I have already spent plenty of time making graphs to chart progress, finding formulas online to predict performance, etc.; at times probably to the extreme where it's too much about the numbers and not enough about the experience! Overall though, I enjoy having a concrete reminder of what I have accomplished, preferably in a form that can be analyzed (i.e. numerical, not descriptive). So I think that learning some new and different ways of looking at data will be very useful to me in the future.
