# See ?geom_boxplot for other examples
# Three ways of doing transformating in ggplot:
# * by transforming the data
qplot(log10(carat), log10(price), data=diamonds)
# * by transforming the scales
qplot(carat, price, data=diamonds, log="xy")
qplot(carat, price, data=diamonds) + scale_x_log10() + scale_y_log10()
# * by transforming the coordinate system:
qplot(carat, price, data=diamonds) + coord_trans(x = "log10", y = "log10")
# The difference between transforming the scales and
# transforming the coordinate system is that scale
# transformation occurs BEFORE statistics, and coordinate
# transformation afterwards. Coordinate transformation also
# changes the shape of geoms:
d <- subset(diamonds, carat > 0.5)
qplot(carat, price, data = d, log="xy") +
geom_smooth(method="lm")
qplot(carat, price, data = d) +
geom_smooth(method="lm") +
coord_trans(x = "log10", y = "log10")
# Here I used a subset of diamonds so that the smoothed line didn't
# drop below zero, which obviously causes problems on the log-transformed
# scale
# With a combination of scale and coordinate transformation, it's
# possible to do back-transformations:
qplot(carat, price, data=diamonds, log="xy") +
geom_smooth(method="lm") +
coord_trans(x="pow10", y="pow10")
# cf.
qplot(carat, price, data=diamonds) + geom_smooth(method = "lm")
