library(plotly)

## Loading required package: ggplot2

## 
## Attaching package: 'plotly'

## The following object is masked from 'package:ggplot2':
## 
##     last_plot

## The following object is masked from 'package:stats':

There is an in-built dataset called “iris” and this will be loaded into the document using the code data(iris) and then use the plot_ly() function to create the interactive graph for this presentation.

data(iris)

plot_ly(x= iris$Sepal.Width, 
        y= iris$Sepal.Length, 
        z = iris$Species,
        type = "scatter3d", 
        mode = "markers", 
        color = iris$Species)

The above code creates a 3D interactive scatterplot of Sepal Width versus Sepal Length separated by Species.
