You are close!
Nice work, but see if you can get the mydata to get plotted by using the technique I describe in the review comments.

// its essential to define mydata out of the scope of ajax function below
var mydata;
var getAndParseData = function() {
  bikedata=$.ajax(bikeCrashPhillyUrl)
  .done(function(bikedata){
     mydata=JSON.parse(bikedata);
    console.log(mydata);
    console.log('done?');
  });
  };
    console.log(mydata);//????????not defined```

Do you see how I defined mydata outside of the ajax call?

This allows the results of the ajax call to reach outside the function and save the data out in a that global scope that will persist after the function is run.

Try this again. This comes close to resolving the issue for you, but then I ran it again, and I got this error:

So youll have to define myfilter as a function
