Develop a program to quickly explore a given data set including categorical analysis using the ‘group by’()and visualize the findings using ‘ggplot2’
what we will do
In this program we will: 1.load the required libraries and data set 2.explore the structure of the data set 3. Convert a numeric variable into a categorical variable . 4. perform categorical analysis using ‘groupby()’and ’sumarize()’. 5 Visualize the results using ‘ggplot2’.
Step 1:load required libraries and data set - ‘tidyverse’ is a collection of packages for data science. - ‘dplyr’ is used for grouping and sumarsing data.
library(tidyverse)
── Attaching core tidyverse packages ──────────────────────── tidyverse 2.0.0 ──
✔ dplyr 1.2.0 ✔ readr 2.1.6
✔ forcats 1.0.1 ✔ stringr 1.6.0
✔ ggplot2 4.0.2 ✔ tibble 3.3.1
✔ lubridate 1.9.5 ✔ tidyr 1.3.2
✔ purrr 1.2.1
── Conflicts ────────────────────────────────────────── tidyverse_conflicts() ──
✖ dplyr::filter() masks stats::filter()
✖ dplyr::lag() masks stats::lag()
ℹ Use the conflicted package (<http://conflicted.r-lib.org/>) to force all conflicts to become errors
library(dplyr)#load built-in datasetdata <-mtcars
Step2:Explore the data set
before performing any analysis, we should understand the dataset we will check :
Number of rows and columns -Column names -Data types -Summary statistics -First few rows

Step 3 :Convert numerical value to categorical value The variable cyl represents the numbers of cylinders in the car Although it is numeric (4,6,8) it represents categories .
For categorical analysis .we convert it into a factor
# Convert 'cyl' to factor data$cyl <-as.factor(data$cyl)#Confirm conversionstr(data$cyl)
