Oops! Look at n=3, 30 + 300 = 330 (not 300!)

An alternative in R that avoids the $ ugliness would be

input <- within(input, z <- x + y)

This also extends much more gracefully to more complicated adjustments, and %>% pipes.

Hi Bill, Thank so much for pointing out the error and suggesting better R code. All pictures have been updated following your comment.

FYI for the rest of readers, we originally had 30 + 300 = 300 in the two screenshots and they have been corrected. Bill's recommended R code replaced the "ugly" version of input$z <- input$x + input$y

Thanks so much.
