Exercise

Making your plot larger

Just as input functions can have different arguments depending on the type of input, so can output placeholder functions have different arguments to modify their appearance or behavior.

For example, when displaying a plot in a Shiny app using plotOutput(), the height of the plot by default will be 400 pixels. The plotOutput() function has some parameters that can be used to modify the height or width of a plot.

Instructions

100 XP

The code for the Shiny app from the last exercise is provided. Your task is to make the plot larger. Specifically:

  • 600 pixels tall and 600 pixels wide. You can consult the plotOutput() documentation to find out what parameters to use (line 18).
