Deviation, Covariance and
Correlation for health_exp
data set.

Objective: Utilize the `seaborn` library and the "health_exp" dataset to explore covariance, correlation,
and measures of dispersion in Data Statistics techniques for Data Science.

Task 1: Load the "health_exp" dataset using Seaborn and examine its structure to understand the variables
and data types.

Task 2: Calculate the population standard deviation for the "health_expenditure" column. Explain the
significance of this value and how it reflects the dispersion of health expenditure across countries.

Task 3: Randomly select a sample of 100 data points from the "health_expenditure" column. Calculate the
sample standard deviation for this sample and discuss why sample standard deviation is important for
studying smaller subsets of data.

Task 4: Create a histogram using Seaborn to visualize the distribution of "health_expenditure" in the entire
dataset. Interpret the shape of the distribution and how it relates to the standard deviation you calculated
earlier.

Task 5: Generate a box plot using Seaborn to examine the dispersion of "health_expenditure." Discuss what
the box plot reveals about the spread of health expenditure data.

Task 6: Calculate the interquartile range (IQR) for "health_expenditure" and explain its significance in
understanding the dispersion of health expenditure data.

Task 7: Calculate the coefficient of variation for the "health_expenditure" column and explain its purpose
in comparing the variability of health expenditure across different countries.
