(use '(incanter core io stats charts))
(def nyc (read-dataset "../nyc_school_sat_scores_clean.csv" :header true))
(def nyc-long (deshape :merge [:reading :writing :math] :data nyc))
(def nyc-fit (linear-model ($ :reading nyc) ($ :math nyc)))

(view (histogram :reading :data nyc))
(view (histogram :writing :data nyc))
(view (histogram :math :data nyc))

(with-data nyc
  (doto (scatter-plot :math :reading :data nyc)
    (add-lines ($ :math nyc) (:fitted nyc-fit))
    view))

The only thing I couldn't implement was the 3 histograms in one "chart", side-by-side.

awesome! the fit line looks a bit different than what we came up with. wonder why.

@derekeder honestly, I had no idea what I was doing with that part. I had to fiddle with it a lot before I got it to look right. It's likely I'm using it wrong.

@derekeder updated; now produces the proper line on the scatter plot
