A
Venn diagram
(also called primary diagram, set diagram or logic diagram) is a
diagram that shows all possible logical relations between a finite
collection of different sets. In R, the
VennDiagram
package is the best option to build one. Note
that with more than 3 sets, it is better to switch to an
upsetChart
, as described below.
VennDiagram
package
The VennDiagram
package is the best way to build Venn
Diagrams in R
. The 3 examples below will guide you
through its functioning, from basic examples to customized charts.
UpSetR
An Upset plot is an alternative to the Venn Diagram used to deal with
more than 3 sets. Indeed, a classic Venn Diagram gets to cluttered and
unreadable with four groups or more. The upSet plot is built in
R
thanks to the upSetR
package.
