Exercise

Counts vs. proportions (2)

Bar charts can tell dramatically different stories depending on whether they represent counts or proportions and, if proportions, what the proportions are conditioned on. To demonstrate this difference, you'll construct two bar charts in this exercise: one of counts and one of proportions.
