Creating a box plot
Comparing histograms across each category of a variable is useful, but can be difficult to decipher actual differences with the eyes only (and may take up lots of space). An alternative, and sometimes more useful approach, is a "box and whisker plot", or simply "box plot".
In this exercise, you're asked to investigate if the career stage influences an individual's monthly salary. To do so, you'll create a new variable and use it in a box plot.
If you have lost any progress, close any open reports and load 3_4_boxplots.pbix
from the Workbooks folder on the Desktop.
