Exercise
We will continue the Census visuliazation you started in the last exercise. This activity is the same but, whereas the previous prompt asked for 4 or more variables, please include 6 or more variables this time. If you want that cheat code, my response is available on GitHub. License under BSD-3-Clause. Please run assignment_10.py. Totally optional! Just leaving this here if you want to take advantage of it. See also a video walkthrough of the code.
Note that the Zulip community is not available to this MOOC. Please consider sharing your exercise via social media such as Bluesky with the tag #OpenDataVizSciCourse.
