Draw Table within ggplot2 Plot Area in R (Example Code)
This tutorial explains how to add a table within the plotting area of a ggplot2 graphic in R.
Preparing the Example
data(iris) # Load example data head(iris) # Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species # 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa # 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2 setosa # 3 4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 setosa # 4 4.6 3.1 1.5 0.2 setosa # 5 5.0 3.6 1.4 0.2 setosa # 6 5.4 3.9 1.7 0.4 setosa |
data(iris) # Load example data head(iris) # Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species # 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa # 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2 setosa # 3 4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 setosa # 4 4.6 3.1 1.5 0.2 setosa # 5 5.0 3.6 1.4 0.2 setosa # 6 5.4 3.9 1.7 0.4 setosa
install.packages("ggplot2") # Install & load ggplot2 library("ggplot2") |
install.packages("ggplot2") # Install & load ggplot2 library("ggplot2")
my_plot <- ggplot(iris, # Create ggplot2 graph aes(x = Sepal.Length, y = Sepal.Width)) + geom_line() my_plot |
my_plot <- ggplot(iris, # Create ggplot2 graph aes(x = Sepal.Length, y = Sepal.Width)) + geom_line() my_plot
Example: Drawing Table to ggplot2 Graphic Using the ggpmisc Package
install.packages("ggpmisc") # Install ggpmisc package library("ggpmisc") # Load ggpmisc |
install.packages("ggpmisc") # Install ggpmisc package library("ggpmisc") # Load ggpmisc
my_plot + # Adding table to ggplot2 graph annotate(geom = "table", x = 8, y = 4.5, label = list(head(iris))) |
my_plot + # Adding table to ggplot2 graph annotate(geom = "table", x = 8, y = 4.5, label = list(head(iris)))
