Stat. 651 Interactive Data graphics

Examples of using R packages that depend on JavaScript and D3. We will be testing out a number of htmlwidgets

Datatable

Check out the DT. It makes very nice interactive tables that include the ability to search for rows of data.

Leaflet

The leaflet package is very useful for making maps.

library(leaflet)

m <- leaflet() %>%
  addTiles() %>%  # Add default OpenStreetMap map tiles
  addMarkers(lng=174.768, lat=-36.852, popup="The birthplace of R")
m  # Print the map

Lets find our current location using latlong.net and make a map. So now

m_csueb <- leaflet() %>%
  addTiles() %>%  # Add default OpenStreetMap map tiles
  addMarkers(lng=-122.053765, lat=37.656057, popup="Stat. 651 on the CSU East Bay campus.")  
m_csueb  # Print the map
