This segment demonstrates how to use jitter to visualize point density in a scatter plot. 

Course Description:
This 1-hour course teaches students to create customized data visualizations in R. Using the ggplot2 package, students will produce plots, histograms, density distribution, and other useful visualizations to bring their data to life.

This course is designed to be used in conjunction with the Data Visualization with R curriculum (PDF), which you can access and download here: https://cmu-lib.github.io/os-workshops/reproducible-research/Data%20Visualization%20with%20R.pdf. 

An up-to-date copy of R and RStudio are required for this course. This  lesson  also  assumes  basic  familiarity  with R and  the RStudio environment.  Participants are  expected  to  have  completed  the Introduction  to R mini  prior  to  enrolling  in  this  course,  or  to have  an  equivalent  level  of  understanding  of  the  material contained  in  that  lesson.
