FSCI-AM7: DataViz in R with ggplot2

This is an introduction to creating figures in R using the package ggplot2. We will show how to read data into R using a few sources, including the data repository Dataverse. We then will introduce ggplot2, which we think provides an elegant and lego-like way to provide an introduction to dataviz. It implements a grammar of graphics that lets users layer graphical elements in a modular and adaptable way.
