The objective of this chapter is to provide you with a general overview of the plotting environments in R and of the most efficient way of coding your graphs in it. We will go through the most important Integrated Development Environment (IDE) available for R as well as the most important packages available for plotting data; this will help you to get an overview of what is available in R and how those packages are compared with ggplot2
. Finally, we will dig deeper into the grammar of graphics, which represents the basic concepts on which ggplot2
was designed. But first, let's make sure that you have a working version of R on your computer.
