Exercise instructions

  • View the assignments of each occupation to their clustering by sorting the cut_oes vector using sort().
  • Use ggplot2 to plot each occupation's average income by year and color the lines by the occupation's assigned cluster.

Hands-on interactive exercise

Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.

# View the clustering assignments by sorting the cluster assignment vector
sort(___)

# Plot the relationship between mean_salary and year and color the lines by the assigned cluster
ggplot(___, aes(x = ___, y = ___, color = factor(___))) + 
    geom_line(aes(group = occupation))
