Now You Code 2: Arrests by State

You are now finished with college and doing some research on where to apply for a job. Workng in a safe state would be a great start.

Suggested Approach:

Download the html using the requests library.
Extract the data using BeautifulSoup from the table using. Make sure you use functions that extract each part of the data.
Build a pandas dataframe containing the data. To make things a little easier, use Total all ages for each state.
Create a bar chart displaying the state and total arrests.
