Description

I saw the recent activity on CSV parsing and seeing lisp-stat mentioned reminded me of how I was able to get [vega-lite plots working in emacs from Common Lisp](https://github.com/applied-science/emacs-vega-view?tab=readme-ov-file#common-lisp) without a lot of effort. I've also noticed the [plotting libraries from awesome-cl](https://github.com/CodyReichert/awesome-cl?tab=readme-ov-file#plotting) and it would be fitting to have some examples in the cl-cookbook for general data analysis through plotting workflows.

I'm interested in doing this work, but unsure of when I can/will get to it and wanted to make the issue before I forget about it :).

Research direction

Review the linked emacs-vega-view Common Lisp example and the plotting section of awesome-cl to identify suitable plotting workflows for the cookbook. No repository file or test is named, so first locate the existing data-analysis examples and their documentation conventions; done means adding clear, working plotting examples with appropriate references.
