Exercise 1

The table below contains experimental observations.

Elapsed Time (s)	Speed (m/s)
0	0
1.01	3
2.07	7
3.3	12
4.2	20
5.3	30
6.1	45.6

Plot the speed vs time (speed on y-axis, time on x-axis) using a line plot. From examination of the plot, estimate the speed at time t = 5.0 (eyeball estimate)

# Create two lists; time  and speed

# Create a line chart of speed on y axis and time on x axis

# Estimate:

---

Exercise 2

Using the same series from Exercise 1, Plot the speed vs time (speed on y-axis, time on x-axis) using a scatter plot. From examination of the plot, estimate the speed at time t = 2.0 (eyeball estimate)

# Create a scatterplot chart

# Estimate: 

---

Exercise 3

Using the same series from Exercise 1, Plot the speed vs time (speed on y-axis, time on x-axis) using a line plot. Plot a second line based on the linear model

$$y = mx + b$$

where

$$b=0~\text{and}~m=7.6$$

---

Exercise 4

Using trial and error try to improve the 'fit' of the model, by adjusting values of $$m~\text{and}~b$$.

Exercise 5

Use pandas to read a dataframe from the file http://54.243.252.9/engr-1330-webroot/8-Labs/Lab12/census_18.csv. Then produce a line plot of the counts by age for the 2010 census, x-axis will be the series age, y-axis will be the census values for 2010.

# Code and run your file read here

# Code and run your plot here

Exercise 6

Using your dataframe from exercise 5, plot both the 2010 and 2014 census values by age. Plot the 2010 distribution in blue and the 2014 distribution in red.

# Code and run your plot here

Bar Charts

Exercise 7

Consider the data set "data" defined as

data = {'C':20, 'C++':15, 'Java':30, 'Python':35} 

which lists student count by programming language in some school.

Produce a bar chart of number of students in each language, where language is the classification, and student count is the variable.

# Code and run your solution here

Exercise 8

Repeat Exercise 7 but use a horizontal bar chart.
