Task #6: Explore NYC taxi trips data set

I performed an Exploratory Data Analysis using the Yellow_Trip_Records for November 2022 using the pandas, and Bokeh libraries for data preparation and visualization, respectively.

My submission can be found on this GitHub Gist Page

I appreciate any reviews and comment on it. Thank you cc @pavithraes, @bryevdv

@anisheremariam Your notebook for exploring the NYC taxi data looks great, I'd encourage you to include https://anisheremariam.github.io/Bokeh_Outreachy/ in your final application!

Some additional thoughts:

• I think you've written well-structured code with appropriate and useful comments.
• I also liked the theme and your color choices throughout.
• Your first two plots are nice and complete, I think the rod plot and multi plot can also benefit from a plot title and axes labels.
• The markdown cells in your Jupyter notebook all have heading elements. It's usually a good practice to follow the heading hierarchy in markdown, so I would suggest some quick updates to improve the structure there. For example, "There are 3.75% Null values in only five columns, hence, I am dropping the NULL Values" can be normal text, and you can add new section headings where relevant.
• If you have the time and wish to, I'll encourage you to try out some interactive elements of Bokeh as well -- this is not mandatory, and you can absolutely submit your current work. :)
• I appreciate you taking the time mapping the actual payment types to their numeric values in your final bar plot!

Let me know if you need any clarifications or another review, but I think you're in a good position to submit your work!

Thank you @pavithraes, I appreciate the positive feedback. I want the series to be really helpful for bokeh beginners so I noted your suggestions and I will improve the blog post. Thank you again.
