** JSFiddle was having some internal server errors so I used CodeGen **

## Study Questions (5 points x 3 = 15 points)

### Q1. (5 points)

fill-in-your-answer
The names are arbitrary variables. However, they will be used as a reference to the data. Therefore, instead of caliing `d.value` you would call `d.count`.
However, I would argue to use some sort of convention to make 'mental compilation' quicker.

### Q2. (5 points)

fill-in-your-answer
1. You cannot use Excel in the browser
2. Excel doesn't 'excel' in dynamic animations like you can do in d3
3. You are limited in data sources in Excel
4. Excel is not suited for 'big data'

### Q3. (5 points)

fill-in-your-answer
We are setting the type of the data that we recieve from GitHub. It will not
automatically know what data-type it is. Could be a string, etc. We coerce to
be interepreted as a number.

Once again, JSFiddle was down so I had to use alternative methods.
