A simple 3D histogram
We have studied histograms in Chapter, A Simple Guide to R. We will try to plot a 3D histogram in this recipe. The applications of 3D histograms are limited, but they are a great tool for displaying multiple variables in a plot. In order to construct a 3D histogram, as shown in the following screenshot, we will use the plot3d
package available in R.
Getting ready
To plot a histogram in 3D, we will use the plot3D
package available in R.
How to do it…
We will install as well as load the plot3D
package in R using the install.packages()
and library()
functions, respectively.
install.packages("plot3D") library(plot3D)
We will now generate ...
