Create a horizontal bar chart
To create a horizontal bar chart we need a data frame so we have created a data frame that is used to create a horizontal bar chart with the help of ggvis() method of ggvis library.
R
# Importing ggvis package library("ggvis") # Declaring a data frame data_frame <- data.frame(col1 = c("a", "b","c","d","e"), col2 = c(1,2,3,4,5), col3 = c("Green", "Orange","Green","Green","Orange")) # Printing the data frame print("Data Frame") print (data_frame) # Plotting the data data_frame %>% ggvis(x =~col2, y=~col1, fill =~ col3) %>% layer_rects(x2 = 0, height = band()) |
Output:
[1] "Data Frame" > print (data_frame) col1 col2 col3 1 a 1 Green 2 b 2 Orange 3 c 3 Green 4 d 4 Green 5 e 5 Orange
Explanation :
The col2 values are taken as x coordinates and the col1 values of the data frame are taken as y coordinates of the plot constructed. The colors are then assigned based on the col3 values depicted by the fill parameter of the ggvis() method.
