This repository contains a shiny app produced for the Coursera Developing Data Products course in the Data Science specialization: https://www.coursera.org/course/devdataprod/
The app computes population projections for the United Kingdom covering the period 2015-50 using forecasts of total fertility selected by the user. It can produce a population pyramid for the mid- or end-point of any decade in this period selected by the user.
The code for the app comprises two R scripts: ui.R and server.R; one of the data frames it uses is stored in survivorship.csv.
The active version of the app is hosted on RStudio's shiny apps server: https://bugbunny.shinyapps.io/ProjectionsProject/
There is a five page presentation motivating the app available on gitio: http://bugbunny.github.io/ProjectionsSlides/
The scripts were developed using R 3.2.2 under Windows 7 SP1.
