Correct – the downloadable sample data. For example, in the Software Carpentry:

Unix - http://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/data/data-shell.zip
Programming with Python - 
http://swcarpentry.github.io/python-novice-inflammation/data/python-novice-inflammation-data.zip
 & 
http://swcarpentry.github.io/python-novice-inflammation/code/python-novice-inflammation-code.zip
Plotting & Programming in Python - 
http://swcarpentry.github.io/python-novice-gapminder/files/python-novice-gapminder-data.zip
Programming with R: 
http://swcarpentry.github.io/r-novice-inflammation/data/r-novice-inflammation-data.zip

5 different Zip files with sample data – just in the Software Carpentry. I’d 
like to have one pull of data to analyze and test on. Does this make sense?

Subject: [discuss] RE: Same sample data?

Hi Jamen,
I’m not sure what you’re referring to with “the same sample data” but am 
assuming that you’re talking about the combined sample data for a full workshop 
– Unix, Git, and programming language. It can be a pain to make sure that 
learners download several zip files for each part of the lesson. What we do, 
which I blatantly copied from the University of Oklahoma, is maintain a 
separate GitHub repository that contains all of the data learners need for a 
SWC workshop. One of the first things we do in a workshop is ask the learners 
to clone this repo down to their local machines. We do this with a live coding 
example that’s also pasted into the Etherpad. No one is expected to know what 
they’re doing at this point in the lesson. This preliminary step tests their 
Git installs and ensures that everyone is beginning the workshop with the same 
directory structure and sample data files. You can take a look at the repo 
here:

Subject: [discuss] Same sample data?

As a new instructor - and one who just taught SC: Unix last Friday - I was 
wondering about the sample data that is being used. It seems it would make more 
sense if we used the same sample data instead of having to download a separate 
zip file for each. I realize that will take some work to do, though, but I do 
see a lot of benefit from this. Am I out of my mind?
