Gradient colour scales — scale_colour_gradient • ggplot2
scale_*_gradient creates a two colour gradient (low-high), scale_*_gradient2 creates a diverging colour gradient (low-mid-high), scale_*_gradientn creates a n-colour gradient. For binned …
FAQ: Barplots • ggplot2
How can I make a bar plot of group means? Either calculate the group means first and use geom_col() to draw the bars or let ggplot2 calculate the means with stat_summary() with fun = …
