Gapminder is a foundation, based on Sweden, that aims to enhance basic awareness of basic facts about the socioeconomic global world. As part of their efforts, they collect detailed statistics on life expectancy, population, and GDP$,$ sometimes going back over many years.

Here, we'll work with an excerpt of the Gapminder data. This excerpt has been packaged up and made available via Jenny Bryan's gapminder repo on Github.

Run the code below to retrieve the data and take a look. As usual, you can also directly download the data by pasting the url into your browswer, saving the file, and reading it in locally via pandas.read$\_$csv$.$
