Creating an initial plot
In the previous lessons, we tidied and cleaned our data to prepare it for visualization. Now we're ready to start recreating FiveThirtyEight's graph. Let's start with an initial plot. The dataset you created in the last chapter, rude_behaviors, is loaded.

- Order
response_varbyperc_rude - Make a bar plot of
response_varbyperc_rude. Save it asinitial_plot.
Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
initial_plot <- rude_behaviors %>%
# Reorder response_var by perc_rude
mutate(response_var = ___(response_var, perc_rude)) %>%
# Make a bar plot of perc_rude by response_var
ggplot(aes(x = ___, y = ___)) +
geom_bar(stat = "identity")
# View your plot
