Stacking states

In this exercise, you will explore and compare the prices of various food commodities across three Indian states: Jammu and Kashmir, Bihar, and Punjab. To facilitate this analysis, you will utilize grouped histograms, where the bars representing different commodities will be stacked on top of each other.

For your convenience, the DataFrames, and StatsPlots packages have already been imported. Additionally, the commodities DataFrame is readily accessible, containing the relevant data for your analysis.
