# Visualization of number of cars by cylinder
ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = factor(cyl))) +
  geom_bar(fill = "steelblue") +
  labs(title = "Number of Cars by Cylinder Count", x = "Cylinders", y = "Count")

Conclusion

The dataset ‘mtcars’ has been successfully analyzed using basic descriptive statistics and visualization.
