In the FAA Wildlife Strike data, Height and Speed are both fields that can be recorded for reports. Height is a measure in feet from the ground at which an incident happened, while speed is a measure of the speed the aircraft was traveling when it was struck by wildlife. You will take a look at both of these metrics using Python histograms so that you can compare the distribution of those values when selecting different filters.
You will follow these steps:
- Preparing the data for the Python histogram.
- Building the Python histogram visualization and add it to your report...
