Tutorial: R Graphics |
This course will assume that you already know how to call a function to produce a plot in R. We will start by discussing how to customize an R plot, including how to modify the appearance of a plot (e.g., colours and fonts), and how to add extra output to a plot (e.g., extra data series, labels, and arrows). In the second part we will discuss how to customize a Trellis (lattice) plot and talk about why it is different from customizing other sorts of plots. Finally, we will introduce the grid graphics system in R and show how this allows you to create plots with a great deal of flexibility.
