Penguin plotting in chain
Combining plots for multiple groups allows you to compare qualities within and between those groups. Now let's combine it with the macro experience! In this exercise, you'll be looking at three different species of penguins, Adelie, Chinstrip, and Gentoo. Your colleagues think it might be possible to successfully infer the species by comparing the lengths of their flippers and their body mass. Let's see if they are right!
The penguins
DataFrame has been imported for you, along with all the necessary packages.
This exercise is part of the course
Data Manipulation in Julia
Exercise instructions
- Inside the macro, group the
penguins
DataFrame by thespecies
column. - Create a scatter plot of the
flipper_length_mm
against thebody_mass_g
columns for the different groups, using the provided labels. You can usegdf[1]
to access the first group of thegdf
GroupedDataFrame. - Remember to plot all the species into a single plot.
