Implement an R function to generate a line graph depicting the trend of a time-series dataset, with separate lines for each group, utilizing ggplot2’s group aesthetic

Step 1:Load the required library

library(ggplot2)
library(dplyr)

Attaching package: 'dplyr'

The following objects are masked from 'package:stats':

    filter, lag

The following objects are masked from 'package:base':

    intersect, setdiff, setequal, union

library(tidyr)

Step 2: Load the Built-in AirPassengers Dataset

AirPassengers

Step 3: Define a Function for Time-Series Line Graph

# Function to plot time-series trend
plot_time_series <- function(data, x_col, y_col, group_col, title="Air Passenger Trends") {
  ggplot(data, aes_string(x = x_col, y = y_col, color = group_col, group = group_col)) +
    geom_line(size = 1.2) +  # Line graph
    geom_point(size = 2) +   # Add points for clarity
    labs(title = title,
         x = "Year",
         y = "Number of Passengers",
         color = "Year") +  # Legend title
    theme_minimal() +
    theme(legend.position = "top")
}

# Call the function
plot_time_series(data, "Date", "Passengers", "Year", "Trend of Airline Passengers Over Time")

Warning: `aes_string()` was deprecated in ggplot2 3.0.0.
ℹ Please use tidy evaluation idioms with `aes()`.
ℹ See also `vignette("ggplot2-in-packages")` for more information.

Warning: Using `size` aesthetic for lines was deprecated in ggplot2 3.4.0.
ℹ Please use `linewidth` instead.
