d3.tree() on Titanic

This example courtesy of Displayr who have generously offered to sponsor a series of independently authored posts about interactive visualization with R and JavaScript. Thank you so much Displayr for this opportunity.


Code in R

Below is the R source code for creating this visualization. You might notice that much of this is actually JavaScript. To see the JavaScript, please inspect index.html.

  select(-Age) %>%
  group_by(Class, Sex, Survived) %>%
  summarise(Freq = sum(Freq)) %>%
  d3_nest(value_cols="Freq", root="Titanic")
