(a) Use a random number generator to randomly pick eight states. Construct a bar graph of the rates of a specific disease of those eight states.
(b) Construct a bar graph for all the states beginning with the letter A.
(c) Construct a bar graph for all the states beginning with the letter M.

Its source prints no answer for this problem, so there's nothing to check against.
