<p><strong>Challenge 2: Linguistic Diversity</strong></p><p><strong>Level: </strong>Easy<br><strong>Description: </strong>You are a linguist studying linguistic diversity around the world. You have found a dataset that includes information about countries, such as the number of languages spoken, area, and population. The dataset also contains a column called MGS, which refers to the mean growing season in each country (i.e., for how many months per year crops can be grown on average). What are the top 5 countries by the number of languages spoken? What are the top 5 countries by the ratio of languages spoken to population? What are the top 5 countries by the ratio of languages spoken to land area? Finally, do you notice any patterns between the numbers of languages spoken and the MGS values?<br><br><em>Objective 1 (Easy):</em> Learn how to import a CSV file into KNIME.<br><em>Objective 2 (Easy): </em>Perform ratio calculations between columns (e.g., number of languages spoken and population size ratio).<br><em>Objective 3 (Easy):</em><strong> </strong>Sort the resulting table using specific criteria to select top 5 countries.<br><em>Objective 4 (Easy): </em>Filter the top rows based on your selected criteria.</p>
