The Issue
Does a person’s education change the length of the words they use? Some believe that longer words are generally used by more educated people, but many of the most common words (like "the", "a", "is", and so on) are pretty short.
Objectives
You will use histograms to plot the distribution of word-lengths across different text samples.
