Creating a Bar Chart with ggplot2 using Two Different Methods

Let's create a bar chart with ggplot2 using both geom_bar() and geom_hist().

1. Create a bar chart of the vore variable from msleep using geom_bar(), as follows:

ggplot(msleep, aes(vore)) + geom_bar()

2. Create the same bar chart of the vore variable from msleep using geom_ histogram(stat = "count"), as follows:

ggplot(msleep, aes(vore)) + geom_histogram(stat = "count")

Output: The following is the output we get after executing the code mentioned in Step 1:
