 ### Putting it all together
 
 In the block of code below, we put everything from this chapter together, with a few

-added a few more layers to make the data visualization even more effective.
-Specifically, we changed the color of the bars and changed the background from
-grey to white to improve the contrast. We have also actually skipped the

 `select` step that we did above; since you specify the variable names to plot
 in the `ggplot` function, you don't actually need to `select` the columns in advance

 This exercise demonstrates the power of R. In relatively few lines of code, we
 performed an entire data science workflow with a highly effective data
 visualization! We asked a question, loaded the data into R, wrangled the data
 (using `filter`, `arrange` and `slice`) and created a data visualization to
-help answer our question.  In this chapter, you got a quick taste of the data

 these steps in much more detail!
