You will continue your analysis of the data set you obtained from the NOAA's National Climatic Data Center.Within the data set, find one weather station in your county which has daily snowfall data for December 1 through March 31 (this range is considered one winter) for two different winters. Make sure the dates for each consecutive day are listed in the data file and also that none of the SNOW values are blank.(We have not yet studied how to deal with missing data, so at this point we need to work with complete data sets).
Create two new tabs/sheets in your Excel file, one for the each of these winter seasons.Copy and paste the data to these new sheets and give descriptive names to the tabs.
For each of these two seasons, use StatCrunch to make a histogram of the snowfall.At the end of Chapter 2 in the textbook is a Tech Tips section with instructions for doing so in StatCrunch.
When you click on Graph in StatCrunch you will have the ability to set many features.You will want to experiment a bit here.The bins should start at 0, but experiment with several different widths.Once you have found a useful width, be sure to use the same width for both histograms.Include relevant labels for the x-axis, y-axis, and title.
Copy and paste each histogram into the appropriate sheet of your Excel file.That is, the two new tabs you have with the data should now also include the associated histograms.Make sure to save your file.You should be working from one data file for modules one through three, creating new sheets/tabs as we continue our work in each module with that same data set.
For your discussion post, summarize the important features of these two histograms using the vocabulary of Section 2.2 of our textbook.Attach your Excel file.
