Using the lung cancer data described in Appendix A, examine the distribution of the variable days separately

Question:

Using the lung cancer data described in Appendix A, examine the distribution of the variable days separately for those who died (death=1) and for those who did not (death=0). Plot a normal probability plot, a histogram, and a boxplot for each. Use the methods described in this chapter to choose appropriate transformations to induce approximate normality. Are the chosen transformations the same for the two groups? Discuss the results.
