Lesson Transcript

  • [00:00 - 00:11] Alright, so we're all done creating our chart. Now let's sit back and enjoy the spoils of our labor and look at our chart to see what we can learn.

  • [00:12 - 00:25] So let's just make this really big for actually. I don't know any better way to do it.

  • [00:26 - 00:37] Alright, so here's our scatter plot. We can see that our hypothesis of the humidity and the dew point being a little bit correlated is correct.

  • [00:38 - 01:04] Without doing any kinds of statistical analyses, we can't make any definitive statements of this is correlated or this is correlated this much. But if we kind of look at it, we can see that these dots go up and to the right and we kind of have this skinny band instead of the dots being in a circle or some kind of random mess, they do seem to follow a pattern of moving together.

  • [01:05 - 01:28] So we're not getting high dew points and low humidity or low dew points and high humidity. It kind of seems like a higher dew point correlates with a day that also has a higher humidity and we'll talk a little bit more about the different shapes of scatter plots and what they mean.

  • [01:29 - 01:45] But for now, kind of sit back and look at it maybe for extra credit, change around the metrics that you're looking at to see what different metrics might look like for the same chart. That might be a fun exercise.

  • [01:46 - 01:53] Yeah, just kind of fun to look at it and see how these two metrics vary together.
