Visualization of Shootings by State and Mental Illness Signs

This bar chart represents the number of shootings in different U.S. states. The height of each bar on the chart corresponds to the number of shootings in a particular state. California (CA) has the highest number of shootings, while Rhode Island (RI) has the lowest number of shootings. The code uses the value_counts method to count the occurrences of each state in the dataset and then plots this information in the form of a bar chart for visualization.

The pie chart: “With Signs of Mental Illness” and “Without Signs of Mental Illness.” The pie chart visually represents the distribution of shootings in the dataset, making it clear that a minority of shootings have signs of mental illness (20.9%) while the majority do not (79.1%). This visualization provides a quick and easy way to understand the prevalence of mental illness signs in the context of these shootings.
