Challenge Objective
For the Maven Halloween Challenge, you’ll need to take a data-driven approach for becoming the most popular trick-or-treating house on the block.
Using online votes ranking 85 types of candy, your task is to find the 3 treats you'll give out on Halloween to guarantee that trick-or-treaters of all tastes find something they'll love and present the data to back up your decision.
HOW TO WIN
We'll be crowning 3 separate winners:
- A general "Challenge Winner" for the best entry
- A "First-time Entrant" winner
- A "Fan Favorite" winner (based on project likes in Maven Showcase)
Please consult the Terms & Conditions for full details.
About The Data SetData compiled from an experiment that set out to find the most popular Halloween candy by asking online voters to select their favorite from randomly generated matchups (for example, Twix or Snickers?).
