This post provides reproducible code and explanation for the most
basic scatterplot you can build with
R
and ggplot2.
A scatterplot displays the values of two variables along two axes. It shows the relationship between them, eventually revealing a correlation.
Here the relationship between Sepal width and Sepal length of several plants is shown.
It illustrates the basic utilization of ggplot2
for
scatterplots:
geom_point()
to show points.
