ggplot2 VS ggplot2-book

ggplot2

I got the list of five-letter words from the words package in R, created the QWERTY keyboard grid with base R and tibble, and visualized the data with geom_tile in the ggplot2 package.

Thanks, it's an interesting idea! I definitely could implement this with scale_fill_gradientn) in ggplot2.

I used the ggplot2 package in R to create these figures.

This might not be at the top of your list, but science fiction often presents advanced data analysis and visualization technologies. Open source data analysis tools such as Python's Pandas and R's ggplot2 have revolutionized the field, making complex data manipulation and visualization accessible to all. In the science fiction novel The Martian, astronaut Mark Watney uses a variety of data analysis and visualization tools to survive on Mars. He uses Python's Pandas to clean and organize data, and he uses R's ggplot2 to create visualizations of his data. These tools allow him to make sense of the vast amounts of data and help him to make critical decisions about his survival.

Sorry about the slow reply, but the auto-moderator seems to be deleting my comments (for some unknown reason). I will try once more: the geom_tile function in ggplot2.

Visual cues are a much better idea, thanks! Unfortunately, I don't know how to do that in ggplot2, either (I created these figures in R).

I also only recently started using ggplot after doing most of my graphs with base R‘s plot() function. I started by reading ggplot2 by Hadley Wickham which is also available as a free ebook. Reading the first few chapters is enough to enable you to plot many basic plots. I can’t imagine going back to any other visualization tool ever again. Absolutely love the freedom ggplot gives you.

His ggplot book will teach you all you need to know about R plotting, and is probably right at your current level. It is likewise pretty great, ggplot

The OG book is still the best in my opinion! https://ggplot2-book.org/

You could use base R, see ?plot but a lot of people would use ggplot2. However, looking at your data it won’t look very good because there’s going to be very few points per country.

If you included DESCRIPTION to your repository (like in ggplot2-book - https://github.com/hadley/ggplot2-book/blob/master/DESCRIPTION ) devtools::install_deps() and renv::install() will install dependencies listed there as would pip with requirements.txt , you can trigger this from your R script, from command line or from whatever deployment / automation tool you are using.

Chapters 1-8 of https://adv-r.hadley.nz/, https://r4ds.had.co.nz/ , and https://ggplot2-book.org/ were covered in my statistical computing courses. I don't think it gets much more advanced than that at the undergrad level.
