# Load Titanic titanicing data for analysis. Open in spreadsheet view.
titanic <- read.csv("titanic.csv", stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
View(titanic)
# Set up factors.
titanic$Pclass <- as.factor(titanic$Pclass)
titanic$Survived <- as.factor(titanic$Survived)
titanic$Sex <- as.factor(titanic$Sex)
titanic$Embarked <- as.factor(titanic$Embarked)
#
# We'll start our visual analysis of the data focusing on questions
# related to survival rates. Specifically, these questions will use
# the factor (i.e., categorical) variables in the data. Factor data
# is very common in the business context and ggplot2 offers many
# powerful features for visualizing factor data.
#
#
# First question - What was the survival rate?
#
# As Survived is a factor (i.e., categorical) variable, a bar chart
# is a great visualization to use.
#
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Survived)) +
geom_bar()
# If you really want percentages.
prop.table(table(titanic$Survived))
# Add some customization for labels and theme.
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Survived)) +
theme_bw() +
geom_bar() +
labs(y = "Passenger Count",
title = "Titanic Survival Rates")
#
# Second question - What was the survival rate by gender?
#
# We can use color to look at two aspects (i.e., dimensions)
# of the data simultaneously.
#
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Sex, fill = Survived)) +
theme_bw() +
geom_bar() +
labs(y = "Passenger Count",
title = "Titanic Survival Rates by Sex")
#
# Third question - What was the survival rate by class of ticket?
#
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Pclass, fill = Survived)) +
theme_bw() +
geom_bar() +
labs(y = "Passenger Count",
title = "Titanic Survival Rates by Pclass")
#
# Fourth question - What was the survival rate by class of ticket
# and gender?
#
# We can leverage facets to further segment the data and enable
# "visual drill-down" into the data.
#
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Sex, fill = Survived)) +
theme_bw() +
facet_wrap(~ Pclass) +
geom_bar() +
labs(y = "Passenger Count",
title = "Titanic Survival Rates by Pclass and Sex")
#
# Next, we'll move on to visualizing continuous (i.e., numeric)
# data using ggplot2. We'll explore visualizations of single
# numeric variables (i.e., columns) and also illustrate how
# ggplot2 enables visual drill-down on numeric data.
#
#
# Fifth Question - What is the distribution of passenger ages?
#
# The histogram is a staple of visualizing numeric data as it very
# powerfully communicates the distrubtion of a variable (i.e., column).
#
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Age)) +
theme_bw() +
geom_histogram(binwidth = 5) +
labs(y = "Passenger Count",
x = "Age (binwidth = 5)",
title = "Titanic Age Distribtion")
#
# Sixth Question - What are the survival rates by age?
#
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Age, fill = Survived)) +
theme_bw() +
geom_histogram(binwidth = 5) +
labs(y = "Passenger Count",
x = "Age (binwidth = 5)",
title = "Titanic Survival Rates by Age")
# Another great visualization for this question is the box-and-whisker
# plot.
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Survived, y = Age)) +
theme_bw() +
geom_boxplot() +
labs(y = "Age",
x = "Survived",
title = "Titanic Survival Rates by Age")
#
# Seventh Question - What is the survival rates by age when segmented
# by gender and class of ticket?
#
# A related visualization to the histogram is a density plot. Think of
# a density plot as a smoothed version of the histogram. Using ggplot2
# we can use facets to allow for visual drill-down via density plots.
#
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Age, fill = Survived)) +
theme_bw() +
facet_wrap(Sex ~ Pclass) +
geom_density(alpha = 0.5) +
labs(y = "Age",
x = "Survived",
title = "Titanic Survival Rates by Age, Pclass and Sex")
# If you prefer histograms, no problem!
ggplot(titanic, aes(x = Age, fill = Survived)) +
theme_bw() +
facet_wrap(Sex ~ Pclass) +
geom_histogram(binwidth = 5) +
labs(y = "Age",
x = "Survived",
title = "Titanic Survival Rates by Age, Pclass and Sex")
