Help with Histogram and Boxplot in Python

[SShep71]

I could really use some help here, I am a transfer student so my course load is all out of order. I have a statistics course that requires me to use Python to solve this one question (the 2 parts shown below). I never took any sort of coding before, I don't know where to even start. Can anyone help with this boxplot and histogram? So I can input it into my Lab report.
The weather in Los Angeles is dry most of the time, but it can be quite rainy in the winter. The rainiest month of the year is February. The following table presents the annual rainfall in Los Angeles, in inches, for each February from 1965 to 2006.

Using Python:

2) Construct a histogram for these data.

4) Construct a boxplot for these data. Does the box-plot show any outliers?

You will need to show a lot more effort than that to get much help from us. What graphics toolkit (Tk) do you have that you want to use to plot these histograms? Or are you expected to plot them using ASCII output...?

I really want to provide more, but I honestly don't know what ASCII or a toolkit is at this point. The only programming I have ever done is G-code for CNC machine. All my instructions say is" Provide Python code and two plots" for the question and two plots.

I would guess that the OP is expected to use pyplot. Examples of histograms and box plots using pyplot can be located with a search engine.
