8.1 Widening Data

1. We are going to ‘widen’ that data by taking the observations for the names ‘Shannon’ and ‘Lindsay’ and make one row that has the counts for both M and F observations. Add a brief section of text corresponding to this goal.

2. Filter the BabyNamesFull data object to only include the names ‘Shannon’ and ‘Lindsay’. Then use the pivot_wider() function to create a wider data set as noted above.
