About this project

I chose to work on this problem (using the life expectancy data available on the WHO website) because I thought it was very interesting and relevant, but I also had a couple thoughts about this dataset, chiefly: Do all the authors' chosen factors actually affect life expectancy? If not, what are the predicting variables actually affecting life expectancy? Can we make a model to predict whether a country is “developing” or not based on factors outside of Standard Life Expectancy (e.g excluding the Status or Life Expectancy columns)?
