Hello all,

I have made a short video going over two examples where I am plotting a single quantitative variable against multiple categorical variables, highlighting the use of dot plots and small multiple plots to accomplish this. I also show some examples of the types of changes that need to be made when moving from a figure that you made for yourself to a figure you are going to use to tell a data story to others. You can find the code I used to generate this vignette at dot-vignette-r.qmd. Download here from github if you wish to.

Thanks,

Sincerely,
