change the month fr int to chr

airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 5]<- "May"
airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 6]<- "June"
airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 7]<- "July"
airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 8]<- "August"
airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 9]<- "September"

check to see if months are now chr

make your own plot - plotting ozone by month to. confirms expectations that ozone is more severe in summer months with most high level ozone days concentrated in July and August. Levels drop significantly May June and Sept
