Reference and disclaimer: This homework is attempting to reproduce parts of the New Yorker article by John Cassidy, dated March 26, 2014, and titled “Piketty’s Inequality Story in Six Charts”. All text was lifted directly from that article. Figures are compiled using data that was found at this address. This is purely an exercise in reproduction. None of the following (except the R code) should be misidentified as my original work or ideas.
Attempt to reproduce the article using R code and R markdown syntax exclusively:
~~~ There will be some text here, making it look like the blog ~~~
### Your code for the FIRST FIGURE would go here
# Import data from excel
# Run a plot command (or ggplot or whatever you like best)
# Remember to SUPPRESS all messges and warnings and superfluous R output. Keep the CODE, and the CHART.

### Your code for the SECOND FIGURE would go here
# Import data from excel
# Run aplot command (or ggplot or whatever you like best)
# Remember to SUPPRESS all messges and warnings and superfluous R output. Keep the CODE, and the CHART.

### Your code for the THIRD FIGURE would go here
# Import data from excel
# This one is a little harder, you need to get more data out of the excel spreadsheet
# Run a plot command (or ggplot or whatever you like best)
