Program 11

To generate a box plot using ggplot2, enhanced with notches and outliers, and grouped by a categorical variable using an in-built dataset in R.

Step 1: Load the Required Library

library(ggplot2)

str(iris)

'data.frame':   150 obs. of  5 variables:
 $ Sepal.Length: num  5.1 4.9 4.7 4.6 5 5.4 4.6 5 4.4 4.9 ...
 $ Sepal.Width : num  3.5 3 3.2 3.1 3.6 3.9 3.4 3.4 2.9 3.1 ...
 $ Petal.Length: num  1.4 1.4 1.3 1.5 1.4 1.7 1.4 1.5 1.4 1.5 ...
 $ Petal.Width : num  0.2 0.2 0.2 0.2 0.2 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.2 0.1 ...
 $ Species     : Factor w/ 3 levels "setosa","versicolor",..: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...

Step 3: creating the boxplot

ggplot(iris, aes(x=Species, y=Sepal.Length))+
geom_boxplot(outliers = TRUE, outlier.colour = "pink", notch= TRUE, fill = "beige")+
labs(title= "graph", x="Species", y="Species.Length")+
theme_minimal()
