## Setup your environment
```{r}
# Load required libraries
library(tidyverse)
```
## Load your data
```{r}
# data comes from https://int.nyt.com/newsgraphics/2017/2017-07-17-got-matrix/mean.json
# data based on ratings using tool at https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/08/09/upshot/game-of-thrones-chart.html
got <- read_csv("data/got_ratings.csv")
```
## Create a basic plot
```{r}
# Remember the basic steps:
# - set the data (main function)
# - map variables to aesthetics using aes() -> start with x and y in main function
# - choose a shape layer
ggplot(got, aes(x=moral,y=physical)) +
geom_point()
```
## Set the alpha (transparency) of all points to .75
```{r}
ggplot(got, aes(x=moral,y=physical)) +
geom_point(alpha=.75)
```
## Add labels
```{r}
# hint: check https://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/reference/#section-layer-geoms for all geom options
# wrong way: aes() in geom_point does not carry down; has to be in ggplot()
#ggplot(got) +
# geom_point(aes(x=moral,y=physical)) +
# geom_text(aes(label=label))
ggplot(got, aes(x=moral,y=physical)) +
geom_point(alpha=.75) +
geom_text(aes(label=label))
```
## Fix label overlap
```{r}
# hint: look at ?geom_text for an option that might change the position slightly
# where should the new option go? what layer? inside or outside of aesthetics?
ggplot(got, aes(x=moral,y=physical)) +
geom_point(alpha=.75) +
geom_text(aes(label=label), nudge_y = -.015)
```
## Inheritance: Add colors
```{r}
# add gender as a color three different ways:
# - points only
# - labels only
# - both
ggplot(got, aes(x=moral,y=physical)) +
geom_point(aes(color=gender), alpha=.75) +
geom_text(aes(label=label), nudge_y = -.015)
ggplot(got, aes(x=moral,y=physical)) +
geom_point(alpha=.75) +
geom_text(aes(label=label, color=gender), nudge_y = -.015)
ggplot(got, aes(x=moral,y=physical, color=gender)) +
geom_point(alpha=.75) +
geom_text(aes(label=label), nudge_y = -.015)
```
## Turn off legend for text layer
```{r}
# hint: there is another property for the geom_text layer that might help
ggplot(got, aes(x=moral,y=physical, color=gender)) +
geom_point(alpha=.75) +
geom_text(aes(label=label), nudge_y = -.015, show.legend = FALSE)
```
