Connect and Query (R-SQL)

This is a follow up to the Basic Queries filtering problem.

It is clear Dr. Undómiel appreciates your skill working with large databases and she seems to expect you will maintain your benevolence. (Such is a fair expectation of a true wizard).

1. Download a new copy of the Portal database.
2. Connect to portal_mammals.sqlite using the RSQLite package.
3. Start by reminding yourself about which tables are in the database using dbListTables()
4. Then remind yourself of the fields in the surveys and plots tables using dbListFields().
5. Select and print out the average hind foot length and average weight of:
   • all Dipodomys spectabilis individuals on the control plots
   • male D. spectabilis on the control plots
   • female D. spectabilis on the control plots

Expected outputs for Connect and Query: 1
