For the sake of my examples, I'm planning to work with the `date`, `state`, `cases`, and `deaths` variables. Notice that by using the `read_csv()` function to import the data, R already recognizes the `date` column as dates. Also notice that the column names for cases and deaths don't reflect the fact that both variables are *cumulative* counts. Also also, notice that it looks like I need to convert the state variable to a factor. I'll start there and then get a quick sense of how much data I have for each state with a univariate table.

```{r}
d$state <- factor(d$state)
