Plot Continuous Data by Year R

Plot Two Categorical Variables on X-Axis & Continuous Data as Fill in R (Example)

This article demonstrates how to draw two categories on the x-axis and multiple other variables as fill in R programming.

The content looks as follows:

Let's get started…

Example Data

Consider the following example data:

                set                .                seed                (                349476                )                # Create example data frame                data                <-                data.                frame                (                value                =                rnorm(                100,                5,                2                ),                group                =                sample(LETTERS[                1                :                4                ],                100, replace                =                TRUE                ),                    subgroup                =                sample(letters[                1                :                5                ],                100, replace                =                TRUE                ),                    year                =                c(rep(                2022                :                2023, each                =                50                )                )                )                head(data)                # Print head of example data frame              

set.seed(349476) # Create example data frame data <- data.frame(value = rnorm(100, 5, 2), group = sample(LETTERS[1:4], 100, replace = TRUE), subgroup = sample(letters[1:5], 100, replace = TRUE), year = c(rep(2022:2023, each = 50))) head(data) # Print head of example data frame

table 1 data frame two categories on x axis and multiple continuous variables as fill r

Table 1 shows the first six lines of our example data: Furthermore, you can see that our example data has four columns.

The variable value has the numeric class. This variable contains all our continuous data.

The variables group and subgroup are character strings, and the variable year has the integer class. Those other variables are used to group our continuous data into different subcategories.

As a next step for the preparation of our data, we have to decide what we want to measure. In this specific example, I'll explain how to calculate the sum for each of our groups.

In order to calculate the sum by group, we can use the aggregate function as demonstrated below:

data_aggr                <-                aggregate(                value                ~                group                +                subgroup                +                year,                # Calculate sum by group                data,                        sum)                head(data_aggr)                # Print aggregated data frame              

data_aggr <- aggregate(value ~ group + subgroup + year, # Calculate sum by group data, sum) head(data_aggr) # Print aggregated data frame

table 2 data frame two categories on x axis and multiple continuous variables as fill r

As shown in Table 2, the previous R code has created a new data frame called data_aggr. This data frame contains a single value for each of our subgroups in each of our years.

Let's draw these data!

Example: Draw Multiple Categorical Variables on X-Axis & Continuous Data as Fill

This section shows how to create a graphic that splits our data into two main categories on the x-axis, as well as into groups and subgroups within each of those categories.

We'll use the ggplot2 package to draw our data. To be able to use the functions of the ggplot2 package, we first have to install and load ggplot2.

install.                packages                (                "ggplot2"                )                # Install ggplot2 package                library(                "ggplot2"                )                # Load ggplot2 package              

install.packages("ggplot2") # Install ggplot2 package library("ggplot2") # Load ggplot2 package

In the next step, we can use the ggplot, geom_col, and facet_wrap functions to visualize our data:

ggplot(data_aggr,                # Draw ggplot2 plot                aes(x                =                group,             y                =                value,            fill                =                subgroup)                )                +                geom_col(position                =                "dodge"                )                +                facet_wrap(year ~                .                )              

ggplot(data_aggr, # Draw ggplot2 plot aes(x = group, y = value, fill = subgroup)) + geom_col(position = "dodge") + facet_wrap(year ~ .)

r graph figure 1 plot two categories on x axis and multiple continuous variables as fill r

In Figure 1 you can see that we have created a new ggplot2 plot by running the previous code. This plot contains our two years in two separate facets. Each of these facets contains a grouped barplot, where we have used the column group on the x-axis and the column subgroup to separate the bars within each main group.

This kind of plot can be very useful when you want to illustrate data with multiple subgroups over several years.

Video, Further Resources & Summary

I have recently released a video on my YouTube channel, which shows the contents of this tutorial. You can find the video below:

The YouTube video will be added soon.

Besides that, you might read some of the other tutorials on https://statisticsglobe.com/. I have published several tutorials already.

  • Draw Plot with Two Y-Axes
  • Annotate Multiple Lines of Text to ggplot2 Plot in R
  • Sum of Two or Multiple Data Frame Columns
  • Draw ggplot2 Plot with Two Y-Axes in R
  • Draw Multiple Variables as Lines to Same ggplot2 Plot
  • Creating Plots in R
  • The R Programming Language

At this point you should have learned how to plot two categories on the x-axis and multiple other variables as fill in the R programming language. Let me know in the comments, in case you have further questions.
