Boxplots in ggplot2

In this section, you will learn the ggplot2 codes for producing boxplots. While the syntax and default appearance may differ, these plots aim to compare distributions and identify outliers. If you need, you can add a few lines of code to make the base-R and ggplot2 graphs look the same. The choice of which plotting system to use is yours now.

Change the legend position

p + theme(legend.position="top")
p + theme(legend.position="bottom")
p + theme(legend.position="none") # Remove legend

The allowed values for the arguments legend.position are : "left","top", "right", "bottom".
