Instructions

Works through a list of eight "famous" earthquakes through history (https://www.universetoday.com/39193/famous-earthquakes/) and graphs the magnitude on the screen. After each earthquake is graphed, the connected WeDo 2 "Earthquake" model will shake according to the magnitude of the earthquake for the duration reported in the Wikipedia article about the earthquake (there is no agreed formal measurement of earthquake duration, so we rely on anecdotal reports of the length of the quake for this simulation). When the cat gets to the right side of the screen it clears the screen and continues graphing from the left side of the screen.
