A lot of people swear by ggplot and other grammar of graphics tools, so I have an open question. Let's take an example from the page:
ggplot(data=mpg) +\
geom_point(mapping=aes(x="displ", y="hwy", alpha="manufacturer"))
How much easier is that from
g = ggplot(data=mpg)
g.geom_point(mapping=aes(x="displ", y="hwy", alpha="manufacturer"))
Or, for instance:
ggplot(mpg, aes("displ", "hwy")) +\
geom_point(aes(color="class")) +\
geom_smooth(se=False) +\
labs(title="Fuel efficiency generally decreases with engine size")
VS:
g = ggplot(mpg, aes("displ", "hwy"))
g.geom_point(aes(color="class"))
g.geom_smooth(se=False)
g.title = "Fuel efficiency generally decreases with engine size"
What am I missing?
