Suppose you are given the following sample of STA1506 students.
Spreadsheet 2: Sample of STA1506 student performance.

(b) Display variable Gender using the answer in question 2(a). Use the appropriate labels on the graph.

The entry is to be added between Pertunia and Allowance in the database. Add the information as instructed by the editor to the sample and explain how you added Percy Chukwu who currently resides in Madagascar but Percy is Nigerian by nationality.
(d) Now add Excellent Naidoo. Excellent is a Male, who obtained 81% and he is Indian by race. Add Candice Mooiloop, a Female, who obtained 66% from a coloured race, as student number 8. Display the updated STA1506 sample following the instructions given in questions 2(c) to (d) by highlighting the new information.

The assignment department also updated that these students each obtained 38% and 71% in general. Another update says that Grace Baloyi is black in race. Furthermore, display the final sample of the STA1506 students after updating the given information arranged in ascending order by variable Surname. Moreover, use a pie chart to display the information related to variable Race. Lastly, between a bar chart and a pie chart, which one looks more appropriate to display variable Race information?
