Motivating a lesson

Providing the motivation, or the "why" is important for learning, as it provides students with a framework for situations in which they can apply the knowledge and skills learned in a course in the real-world. Furthermore, it entices students to continue learning by contextualizing the scenarios where they will be able to apply their knowledge.

Imagine you're working on the script of a lesson that teaches students how to properly use and code histograms in a data visualization chapter. The variables motivation_A, motivation_B, motivation_C, and motivation_D, contain four motivational messages you could use to begin your lesson. Print and read each motivational message in the console and answer the following question:

Which message provides the best motivation for the lesson on histograms?
