Overall, this dataset provides a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding global happiness trends and the factors contributing to well$-$being.

I have provided this csv file under Project Files. I would like you to conduct analysis on this data. Minimum tool to be used is Excel but feel free to use other tools such as R$,$ Python, Tableau, etc for extra credit. Best project in general gets extra credit. Feel free to be in a group of $3$ including yourself.

Start by making initial observations of the data. What types of variables are present? Is there anything that catches your eye? A good analyst checks the data carefully. See the Quartz Guide to Bad Data on our slides.

Take $2$ different columns of qualitative data present in the data set. Create a frequency distribution for at least one and create a graph for the other. Interpret your results. $($Explain what the results mean$).$

Now take $2$ columns of quantitative data. Create a frequency distribution for at least one and create a polygon or ogive for the other. Interpret your results. $($Explain what the results mean$).$

Figure out a way to break down your results into the different countries per year in the form of a pivot table. Do you find any interesting trends?

Now I want you to take two variables you think might be related. Create a scatterplot. Find the covariance, correlation and interpret the results.

Use Chebyshev's or Empirical rule $($decide which one is more appropriate$)$ to describe one column of data in a meaningful way. For example figure out where the health life expectancy at birth lie within $2$ standard deviations.

Finally give me a summary of what you have discovered as a whole from this data set. You want the UN to know that you are very interested in working with them. Give them something to think about.
