I reproduce some of the plots from Rstudio’s ggplot2 cheat sheet using Base R graphics. I didn’t try to pretty up these plots, but you should.
Base R Graphics Cheat Sheet David Gerard August 8, 2017. Abstract: I reproduce some of the plots from Rstudio’s ggplot2 cheat sheet using Base R graphics. Base R graph parameters: a cheatsheet. This post aims to remind the options offered to customize a graph in base R. Understand in a sec how to use lwd, pch, type, lty, cex, and more. Line chart Section About line chart Base R offers many option to customize the chart appearance.
I use this dataset
The main functions that I generally use for plotting are

- Plotting Functions
plot
: Makes scatterplots, line plots, among other plots.lines
: Adds lines to an already-made plot.par
: Change plotting options.hist
: Makes a histogram.boxplot
: Makes a boxplot.text
: Adds text to an already-made plot.legend
: Adds a legend to an already-made plot.mosaicplot
: Makes a mosaic plot.barplot
: Makes a bar plot.jitter
: Adds a small value to data (so points don’t overlap on a plot).rug
: Adds a rugplot to an already-made plot.polygon
: Adds a shape to an already-made plot.points
: Adds a scatterplot to an already-made plot.mtext
: Adds text on the edges of an already-made plot.
- Sometimes needed to transform data (or make new data) to make appropriate plots:
table
: Builds frequency and two-way tables.density
: Calculates the density.loess
: Calculates a smooth line.predict
: Predicts new values based on a model.
All of the plotting functions have arguments that control the way the plot looks. You should read about these arguments. In particular, read carefully the help page ?plot.default
. Useful ones are:
main
: This controls the title.xlab
,ylab
: These control the x and y axis labels.col
: This will control the color of the lines/points/areas.cex
: This will control the size of points.pch
: The type of point (circle, dot, triangle, etc…)lwd
: Line width.lty
: Line type (solid, dashed, dotted, etc…).
Discrete
Barplot
Different type of bar plot
Continuous X, Continuous Y
Minecraft free for mac no download. Scatterplot
Jitter points to account for overlaying points.
Add a rug plot
Add a Loess Smoother
Loess smoother with upper and lower 95% confidence bands
Loess smoother with upper and lower 95% confidence bands and that fancy shading from ggplot2
.
Sniffing for mac. Add text to a plot
Discrete X, Discrete Y
Mosaic Plot
R Base Graphics Cheat Sheet
Color code a scatterplot by a categorical variable and add a legend.
par
sets the graphics options, where mfrow
is the parameter controling the facets.
The first line sets the new options and saves the old options in the list old_options
. The last line reinstates the old options.
