How Does R Work?

Look at this simple R magic!

With just a little code, R can make a colorful bar graph:

# Let's make a graph of favorite fruits
fruits <- c("Apples", "Bananas", "Oranges", "Grapes")
counts <- c(12, 19, 7, 15)

# Create a colorful bar plot
barplot(counts, names.arg = fruits,
        col = c("red", "yellow", "orange", "purple"),
        main = "Favorite Fruits!")

What this does:

  • Creates a list of fruits
  • Counts how many kids like each fruit
  • Makes a colorful bar graph

Create Your Own Graph!
