How to use coord_cartesian() In R Language

Method 2: Using xlim() and ylim()

This method is most helpful as it displays the plot within the limits of the axis without clipping the actual data. It just zooms in and shows the area under limits. The coord_cartesian() function will be used to reject all outliers that exceed or below a given quartile

Syntax: plot + coord_cartesian(xlim = <lim-vec>, ylim = <lim-vec>)

Example: Set Axis Limits in ggplot2 in R

R

# Create sample data 
set.seed(5642)    
sample_data <- data.frame(x = rnorm(1000),         
                    y = rnorm(1000)) 
  
# Load ggplot2 
library("ggplot2")  
  
# create plot with limits set 
ggplot(sample_data, aes(x = x, y = y)) + 
geom_point() + 
coord_cartesian(xlim = c(-5, 1), ylim = c(0, 5))
