# Load the ggplot2 package
library(ggplot2)PROGRAM 9
Objective
Create ** multiple histograms** using ggplot2::facet_wrap() to visualize how a variable (e.g.,Sepal.Length) is distributed across different groups(e.g., Species) in a built-in R dataset.
Step 1: Load and Explore the Dataset:
# Load the iris dataset
data(iris)
# View the first few rows of the dataset
head(iris) Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species
1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa
2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2 setosa
3 4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 setosa
4 4.6 3.1 1.5 0.2 setosa
5 5.0 3.6 1.4 0.2 setosa
6 5.4 3.9 1.7 0.4 setosa
Step 2: Create grouped histograms using facet_wrap:
# Create histograms using facet_wrap for grouped data
ggplot(iris, aes(x = Sepal.Length)) +
geom_histogram(binwidth = 0.3,fill = "skyblue", color = "black") +
facet_wrap( ~ Species) +
labs(title = "Distribution of Sepal Length by Species",
x ="Sepal Length(cm)",
y = "Frequency") +
