ggplot2 is a data visualization library for R based on a formal grammar of graphics. It provides a declarative plotting framework that allows users to create complex graphics by combining geometric objects, statistical summaries, and coordinate systems. The system is distinguished by a layered approach to composition, where visualizations are built incrementally by stacking independent geometric, statistical, and coordinate layers. It utilizes a hierarchical styling engine to manage non-data elements such as backgrounds, fonts, and margins, and includes a multi-panel faceting tool for splitti
Adds geometric objects, scales, and coordinate systems incrementally to build sophisticated final visualizations.
