Assignments for April 16

IRS Data: Download the DC list of non-profit organizations from this page and, referring to the record layout and codes, determine how many organizations have a foundation code indicating that they receive "a substantial part of its support from a governmental unit or the general public", and how many of those have assets of at least $500,000. Which organization among those has the most assets? You can use SQLite or Excel to do this, and send me the answers and file.

Visualization: Using either Infogr.am, Timeline JS or another visualization tool (Excel is fine, too), make a simple visualization of data (you can use the IRS data, something from your projects or a previous assignment). Email me the link or file.

Reading: Mockingjay: A Smarter Repeater

Story Memo: Keep filling out your log, and email it to me (or send me a link to it if online).
