North Carolina births

Welcome! In this lab, you'll use the techniques you learned in the previous lab to analyze births in North Carolina, USA. Vamonos!

In 2004, the state of North Carolina released a large data set containing information on births recorded in their state. This data set is useful to researchers studying the relation between habits and practices of expectant mothers and the birth of their children. We will work with a random sample of observations from this data set.
