This week's assignment is:

1. Finish going through any steps of the tutorial we didn't get to
2. Load the starwars data (instead of the mpg data we used this week) and make a pretty graph that tells you something informative. Use colors, move the axes, scale them appropriately, add titles and legends, etc.
