## Plotting
|
||
|
|
The base version of R allows us to make many types of plots!
|
||
|
|
The syntax for a simple scatterplot goes something like this:
|
||
|
|
```r
|
||
|
|
plot(x, y)
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
We create a graph using the plot() function and supply the two parameters, x and y, which are the two columns you want to plot in your dataset.
|
||
|
|
So in the mpg dataset that is available in the tidyverse library, if we wanted to make a scatterplot of the two variables 'cyl' and 'hwy':
|
||
|
|
```r
|
||
|
|
library(tidyverse)
|
||
|
|
attach(mpg)
|
||
|
|
plot(cyl, hwy)
|
||
|
|
```
