INSTRUCTOR NOTE:
Here, and in the rest of the quizzes in this part of the course, put a direct equivalence between temporal data and time series data. It should be noted that, technically, time series data is a special case of temporal data: not all data that has timestamps can be considered time series data. Time series data puts the temporal nature of the data first, and is concerned with the change in values of other variables over time. These relationships are gathered from measurements taken within a consistent frame, typically at regular intervals (e.g. hourly, daily, monthly). Simply because collected data has timestamps does not make it "time-series data". If the timestamps do not have a meaningful dependent relationship across data points, then this should not be considered time-series data in a broad sense.
For the quizzes, treat the "time series" option as generically "temporal".
