Bar plots with error

In the video, we saw how to incorporate error bars into our bar plot to give the viewer a sense of the uncertainty in our estimates. We used error bars of +/- 1 standard error, but it's also common to use +/- 2 standard errors since that roughly represents a confidence interval for the quantity of interest.
