Interactive Visualization and Plotting with Julia
By :

In this section, we will explore predefined plot types scattered through different libraries in the Julia ecosystem. We will introduce packages and plots needed for data analysis and visualization. In particular, we will learn about DataFrames and the Julia packages inspired by The Grammar of Graphics, namely, Gadfly
, VegaLite
, and AlgebraOfGraphics
. Next, we will introduce StatsPlots
and explore how to create classical statistical plots with Julia. Then, we will learn how to work with graphs and networks in Julia and explore different plotting libraries for their visualization. After that, we will change the subject again to learn how to draw maps and visualize geographically distributed data. Finally, we will discover some Julia packages for plotting biological objects, such as sequences and protein structures.
This section comprises the following chapters:
