gg_: Transforms a natural language query into a gg object

In ggx: A Natural Language Interface to 'ggplot2'

Description

Usage

gg_(query = NULL)

Arguments

query

Character. A natural language command related to the styling of a ggplot.

Details

'gg_' calls the function 'gghelp', which maintains a database of keywords that match typical queries related to styling 'ggplot2' graphs. Based on the users natural language query, the function tries to find the best match and then returns the ggplot2 command, such that the result of a call to 'gg_' can be chained directly to a 'ggplot()' call.

Value
