A solution to last week’s challenge can be found here."Women Shoe Store" by MyStockPhotos is marked with CC0 1.0"Women Shoe Store" by MyStockPhotos is marked with CC0 1.0

 

For this week's challenge, let’s do a bit of data preparation using shoe inventory data!

 

The following dataset contains a list of shoes with an ID, colors, and sizes available.

 

For this challenge, you want to clean the inventory data and reorganize the list to have:
- A new ID number
- The size
- A comment stating how many colors are available, and
- Three columns for color

 

Keep in mind that the names of the colors are separated by the sign /.
