Earthquakes happen every day somewhere on the Earth. But how many? And what size are they? Let's find out!

The provided dataset contains information about earthquakes between July 30, 2021, and August 6, 2021.


Using the dataset:
• Create a bar chart to show how many earthquakes occur at each magnitude ("mag").
• Create a map to locate these earthquakes.
• Find the five countries or regions with the most events and list the country, number of events, minimum magnitude, maximum magnitude for each country/region, and the day of most events.

Great refresher on the Report Map tool! It took a few tries of RegEx and String functions to get the Day of Most Events right.
