Summertime grooves
In chapter 1, you found that the average danceability of songs has been rising since 2005. Now, you are tasked with finding the average danceability of songs released in different months. Is there some part of the year where more danceable songs are released? If you were a musician who had written a new dance song, is there a best time of year to release that? Let's find out.
This exercise is part of the course

Exercise instructions
