I Just Felt Like Playing with the Data

Method: I received 2 large csv files from the state totalling 32 Megabytes. Those files detailed 250,000 THC Potency Results and corresponding rows for Moisture Percentage (I wrote about my findings here). To create these visualizations, I read those csv files into a MySQL database via Python script, and then pulled together some summary statistics to visualize in Tableau.
