This webpage demonstrates the power of combining R Markdown with Plotly to create engaging, interactive visualizations. The date this document was created is displayed above.
We’ll be exploring the built-in mtcars dataset, which
contains information about various car models, their fuel efficiency,
and performance characteristics.

You can: - Hover over points to see detailed information - Click and drag to zoom in on a region - Use the toolbar in the top-right to pan, reset axes, and download the plot as a PNG
This interactive box plot shows how fuel efficiency varies based on the number of cylinders in the engine:
Explore the distribution of car weights with this interactive histogram. You can zoom, pan, and hover to see exact counts:
