Help me organize the project files in my workspace
I've scanned your workspace and found 47 files. Here's what I suggest:

1. Move all .pdf files to a docs/ folder
2. Group the .csv data files into data/raw/
3. Create a README.md with the project structure

Want me to go ahead and reorganize?
Yes, do it
Done! Moved 12 PDFs to docs/, 8 CSVs to data/raw/, and created the README. Your workspace is now organized.
