Questions

  1. Draw a pie chart showing the proportion of cars from the mtcars data set that have different carb values.
ggplot(data=mtcars, 
       aes(x = factor(1), fill = factor(carb))) + 
ylab("Proportions of cars by 'carb' value") + 
xlab("") +
geom_bar(width = 1) + 
coord_polar(theta = "y")

  1. Draw a bar graph, that shows the number of each gear type in mtcars.
ggplot(data=mtcars, aes(x=gear)) + geom_bar(stat="count")

  1. Next show a stacked bar graph of the number of each gear type and how they are further divded out by cyl.
ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = factor(cyl), fill = factor(gear))) + 
xlab("Values of 'cyl'") + 
ylab("Values of 'count of gear'") + 
geom_bar(color="black")

4.Draw a scatter plot showing the relationship between 4. 4. Draw a scatter plot showing the relationship between wt and mpg.

ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = wt, y = mpg)) +
xlab("wt") + 
ylab("mpg") +
geom_point() +
geom_line() +
ggtitle("Relationship between 'wt' and 'mpg'") +
stat_smooth(method = "loess", formula = y ~ x, size = 1, col = "red")

5.Design a visualization of your choice using the data: Draw a bar graph, that shows the number of each carb in mtcars.

ggplot(data=mtcars, aes(x=factor(carb))) + geom_bar(stat="count")
