Chapter 15. ggplot2
Hadley Wickham’s ggplot2[46] has become one of the most popular R packages. ggplot2 is a great tool for producing readable
charts. But more importantly, ggplot2
uses a language for describing how to plot data called the grammar
of graphics. In this chapter, I’ll explain how to use the grammar
of graphics to produce plots with ggplot2.

it was superseded by ggplot2. We
won’t cover ggplot in this
book.
