I really threw everything at the wall this week and spent a lot of time and research prepping the data and creating the functions to make them work. I had to combine the death/incidence data and the lat/long centers of each state for the first plot, which I vow to never do again. I jumped to deep in the tank this week and this took way longer than necessary - I’ll admit now out of stubborness. Ultimately, I really wanted to just try this a few different ways, becuase I struggled so much with last weeks assignment.

Here are all 50 states death/incidence rate data as of 2016. I sourced this from data world or a government site, but it was open and public data.

This is my second version of the submission and I like the way it turned out better than the other version using plotly with the same death data.

Everything below here that is unseen in the knit is just practice from the read through
