Change the Months from 5-9 to May through September

airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 5]<- "May"
airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 6]<- "June"
airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 7]<- "July"
airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 8]<- "August"
airquality$Month[airquality$Month == 9]<- "September"

Look at the summary statistics of the dataset, and see how Month has changed to have characters instead of numbers.

Month is a categorical variable with different levels, called factors.

Reorder the Months so they do not default to alphabetical

airquality$Month<-factor(airquality$Month, levels=c("May", "June","July", "August", "September"))

Plot 1: Create a histogram categorized by Month with qplot

p1 <- qplot(data = airquality,Temp,fill = Month,geom = "histogram", bins = 20)
p1

Plot 2: Make a histogram using ggplot

Reorder legend so that it is not the default (alphabetical), but rather in order that months come

outline the bars in while using the color=“white” command

p2 <- airquality %>%
  ggplot(aes(x=Temp, fill=Month)) +
  geom_histogram(position="identity", alpha=0.5, binwidth = 5, color = "white")+
  scale_fill_discrete(name = "Month", labels = c("May", "June","July", "August", "September"))
p2

Plot 3: Create side-by-side boxplots categorized by Month.

fill=Month command fills each boxplot with a different color in the aesthetics

scale_fill_discrete makes the legend on the side for discrete color values.

p3 <- airquality %>%
  ggplot(aes(Month, Temp, fill = Month)) + 
  ggtitle("Temperatures") +
  xlab("Months") +
  ylab("Frequency") +
  geom_boxplot() +
  scale_fill_discrete(name = "Month", labels = c("May", "June","July", "August", "September"))
p3

Plot 4: Make the same side-by-side boxplots, but in grey-scale

p4 <- airquality %>%
  ggplot(aes(Month, Temp, fill = Month)) + 
  ggtitle("Temperatures") +
  xlab("Temperatures") +
  ylab("Frequency") +
  geom_boxplot()+
  scale_fill_grey(name = "Month", labels = c("May", "June","July", "August", "September"))
p4

Plot 5: Now make one plot on your own of any of the variables in this dataset. It may be a scatterplot, histogram, or boxplot.

Ozone by month using boxplot

p5 <- airquality %>%
  ggplot(aes(Month, Ozone, fill = Month)) + 
  ggtitle("Ozone") +
  xlab("Months") +
  ylab("Frequency") +
  geom_boxplot() +
  scale_fill_discrete(name = "Month", labels = c("May", "June","July", "August", "September"))+
  scale_fill_hue(l=35, c=40)
## Scale for 'fill' is already present. Adding another scale for 'fill', which
## will replace the existing scale.
p5 
## Warning: Removed 37 rows containing non-finite values (stat_boxplot).
