Intro to the insurance data

The insurance.csv data base contains insurance information for 1338 people. The columns report the age, sex, BMI, number of children, smoker status, and geographical region of each individual, as well as the insurance charges. Create dummy variables using the code here. Then, print out the head of the data frame.

import pandas as pd

ins = pd.read_csv("insurance.csv")

# Recode the column smoker into a dummy variables with the prefix smoker ins = pd.get_dummies(ins, columns=['smoker'], prefix = ['smoker'])

# Print the head of ins print(ins())
