This worksheet focus on producing graphics with non-generic plotting functions.

After completing this worksheet you should have gained some experience in searching for (simple) solutions to create some visualizations in lattice or ggplot2.

Things you need for this worksheet

• R — the interpreter can be installed on any operation system.
• RStudio — we recommend to use R Studio for (interactive) programming with R.
• Git environment for your operating system. For Windows users with little experience on the command line we recommend GitHub Desktop.
• Your cleaned data set from unit 6 showing the percentage fraction of settlement, recreational, agricultural, and forest areas for each rural district in Germany.

Graphics

Please create a rather 1:1 copy of the tutorial on visual data exploration from unit 3 which is also based on a Rmd file with html output but this time use the functionality of the lattice or ggplot2 packages for this. Don’t worry about copy rights: the course is published under the Creative Commons “Attribution-ShareAlike”. Hence, you are already allowed to re-use it and you are allowed to change it.

Save your Rmd file in your course repository, knitr it, update (i.e. commit) your local repository and publish (i.e. push) it to the GitHub classroom. Make sure that the created html file is also part of your GitHub repository.
