~ Overview: package DataViz ~

Description

Various data vizualisation methods.

Details

Data Visualisation is the art of graphically representing data. There are numerous data visualisation methods, but they aren't always relevant -and sometimes less informative than basic representations-. Moreover they are often created by programmers in various computer languages and the code being seldom available.

DataViz is a package aiming to give access to Data Visualisation methods that are relevant from the statistician's point of view.

The 3 first methods to be implemented are throwchart, Gravity Bubble Chart (V0.3, june 2019) and XXX (V0.4, septembre 2019)

~ Main function: forcelayout ~

Description

forcelayout method is a dynamic method showing longitudinal data set evolution.

Usage

forcelayout(schedule, webinteract, ttime)

Arguments

~ Quadratic fitting function: quad ~

Description

Fits a set of paired points with a quadratic curve. Returns the quadratic set of points. Function only called by r_throwchart.

Usage

Arguments

Value

returns the quadratic point equivalent.

~ R graphics function: r_forcelayout ~

Description

Used when interactive is false and creates a plot through R of this data visualisation method.

Usage

r_forcelayout(schedule, ttime)

Arguments

Examples

 if(interactive()){
    r_forcelayout(weekschedule,ttime = "Tuesday") 
 }

~ R graphics function: r_throwchart ~

Description

Used when interactive is false and creates a plot through R of this data visualisation method.

Usage

r_throwchart(before, after,xlim, ylim, col, lwd, offSet)

Arguments

Examples

 if(interactive()){
    r_throwchart(tibble(c(1,2)),tibble(c(2,8)),c(0,0),c(0,0),col = "blue", c(1,5), offSet = 1)
 }

~ C++ called function: rcpp_forcelayout ~

Description

This function takes the inputs from forcelayout, and writes the data in Json array, then this function calls a windows cmd function to open an index.html in the extdata.

Usage

rcpp_forcelayout(schedule, path)	

Arguments

Examples

 if(interactive()){
  rcpp_throwchart(weekschedule,path.package("DataViz"))
}

~ C++ called function: rcpp_throwchart ~

Description

This function takes the inputs from throwchart, and writes the data in Json array, then this function calls a windows cmd function to open an index.html in the extdata.

Usage

rcpp_throwchart(before, after ,col, id, lwd, xlim, ylim, offSet, path)	

Arguments

Examples

 if(interactive()){
 before = tibble(c(1,2))
 after = tibble(c(2,8))
 col = tibble(c("#000","#F82"))
 id = tibble(c("",""))
 lwd = tibble(c(1,5))
 xlim = tibble(c(0,0))
 rcpp_throwchart(before,after,col,id,lwd,xlim,0,path.package("DataViz"))}

~ Main function: throwchart ~

Description

Throwchart method is useful for visualising paired data, such as before/after data sets. Each pair of points are set on a horizontal axis and joined by a parabola. The height of the parabola is proportional to the difference: after- before = difference. If the difference is negative (after < before) then the curve is drawn under the axis.

Usage

throwchart(before, after, col, id, lwd, xlim, ylim, offSet, webinteract)

Arguments

Examples

  if(interactive()){
  	throwchart(c(1,2),c(2,8),c("#000","#F82"),id = c("id1","id2"),c(1,5))
  	throwchart(c(1,2),c(2,8), offSet = 1, webinteract=TRUE)
  }
  if(!interactive()){
        throwchart(c(1,2),c(2,8), offSet = 1, webinteract=FALSE)
        throwchart(c(1,2),c(2,1), webinteract=FALSE)
        throwchart(c(1,2),c(2,8),c("#000","#F00"),id = c("id1","id2"),c(1,5), webinteract=FALSE)
	n <- 10
	Avant <- rnorm(n)
	Apres <- Avant + rnorm(n) + 10
	throwchart(Avant, Apres, xlim =  c(-4,14), webinteract = FALSE)
	throwchart(Avant, Apres, offSet = 0, webinteract = FALSE)
	throwchart(Avant, Apres, offSet = 8, webinteract = FALSE)
  }
