Adding geometries

The diamonds dataset contains details of 1,000 diamonds. Among the variables included are carat (a measurement of the diamond's size) and price.

You'll use two common geom layer functions:

  • geom_point() adds points (as in a scatter plot).
  • geom_smooth() adds a smooth trend curve.

As you saw previously, these are added using the + operator.

ggplot(data, aes(x, y)) +
  geom_*()

Where * is the specific geometry needed.
