This product was made for the week 3 assignment of the course "Developing Data Products". It focuses on the study of American women's heigh and weight correlation.
The data set appears to have been taken from the American Society of Actuaries Build and Blood Pressure Study for some (unknown to us) earlier year.
The World Almanac notes: "The figures represent weights in ordinary indoor clothing and shoes, and heights with shoes".
The dataset shows the height and weight of 15 women between 30 and 39 years old.
