Visualizing durability differences

Following the analysis of toy durability, the research team is interested in you visualizing the distribution of durability scores for both Educational and Recreational toys. Such visualizations can offer intuitive insights into the data, potentially highlighting the range and variability of scores within each category. This step is essential for presenting findings to non-technical stakeholders and guiding further product development decisions.

The data is available in the toy_durability DataFrame, and seaborn and matplotlib.pyplot as sns and plt respectively are loaded.
