Data visualization with ggplot2 ๐๐- Vol 2
Details
Since no one came forward to host this meetup (yes ladies, this time I am totally fine being the bad cop, and will pick someone... ๐) I will present some ggplot2 material I had from before.
For those who are less familiar with ggplot2:
It is a wonderful and very popular data visualization package in R. It provides all sorts of functions to customize any bits and pieces you can imagine in a plot.
Beginners are welcome, although some familiarity with R is needed. And if you are used to plotting with base R plot, I'd say it's time to spice things up with ggplot2!
In our last ggplot2 meetup we mainly talked about point (scatter) plots. I will pick up from there, show a more customized example and move on to plotting:
- histograms
- barplots
- boxplots
- doxplots
- errorbars
I know it's a little ambitious, so please let's all try to get there in time. (I'll try to do my best too ๐ )
Materials will be available on R-Ladies github under meetup presentations repo of our chapter (https://github.com/rladies/meetup-presentations_columbus) on the day of the meetup.
Please bring your laptop and have R and RStudio (and the tidyverse package) installed and working. But if things don't work and you're having issues, don't worry! We're here to help (โโฟโโฟ)
And we'll have pizza! ๐
