TidyTuesday 2019 Week 18

From anime to birds. For this TidyTuesday, we explored a dataset about bird-window collisions in the greater Chicago area, from 1978 to 2016 (if you need a reference). I chose to look at the data regarding a single locality, McCormick Place. It was at least a good chance to use geom_violin() for the first time.

ACHIEVEMENTS

  • Use of geom_violin();
  • A basic understanding of left join (:));
  • Use of annotate(). Side note: it may seem quite counterintuitive, but it is not.

ISSUES

  • Understanding how to handle joins (solved)…;
  • x values as annotate’s arguments (when x is a factor variable!).

Here the results:
