For this assignment you will be analyzing the flights data frame included in the nycflights$13$ package, which contains $19$ features for $336,776$ flights that departed from New York City in $2013.$ The goal of this assignment is to become more familiar with data transformations and exploratory data analysis. All analyses must be performed in R using tidyverse $,$ ggplot$2,$ and dplyr$.$ Provide your responses $($including R code in text format that can be copied and pasted into a console$)$ in the designated spaces in this Word document, and then save it as a pdf and upload it to Canvas.

$1.$Generate notched boxplots to compare distributions of distances between flights with early $($before $12$:$00$pm$)$ and late $(12$:$00$pm and after$)$ scheduled departures.

Are distances of flights with early scheduled departure times generally shorter, longer, or about the same as those of flights with late scheduled departure times? Justify your answer, and then provide a possible explanation for this finding.
