Chapter2 PDF

This document introduces visualization with ggplot2 and the tidyverse. It demonstrates how to create scatter plots with the gapminder data, including using log scales and adding aesthetics for color and size. Faceting is also introduced to split plots by variables like continent. The goal is to practice basic visualization and data wrangling techniques.
