Month is a categorical variable with different levels, called factors.

airquality$Month<-factor(airquality$Month,

The plot created is a side-by-side bar chart displaying monthly temperatures using the ggplot2 package in R. To generate this plot, the airquality dataset is used , focusing on temperature (Temp) across different months (Month). The code initializes the plot with ggplot(aes(Month, Temp, fill = Month)), setting up the x-axis as months and the y-axis as temperatures, with fill = Month to color the bars according to the month. geom_col() is used to create the bar chart, showing temperatures for each month. The labs() function adds descriptive labels, including axis titles, a plot title, and a caption. scale_fill_discrete() customizes the fill colors, providing a legend with month names. This setup allows for a clear comparison of temperatures across different months, with visually distinct bars representing each month’s data.
