A data frame with 32 observations on 11 (numeric) variables. Here are some variables that are of interest to us in the analysis.

• mpg: Miles/(US) gallon
• cyl: Number of cylinders
• vs: Engine (0 = V-shaped, 1 = straight)
• am: Transmission (0 = automatic, 1 = manual)
• gear: Number of forward gears
• carb: Number of carburetors

We want to find the distribution of certain variables, such as transmission type and engine type, in order to better understand the makeup of mpg.
