Plotly for 3d and interactive plots in R

This video tutorial by Greg Martin introduces Plotly, a tool for creating interactive plots. It covers using the Star Wars dataset to demonstrate Plotly's capabilities, including creating 3D plots and customizing plot aesthetics. The tutorial also briefly introduces surface plots, encouraging viewers to practice at home using provided datasets.

What is the primary library used in the video for creating interactive plots?

• Matplotlib

• Seaborn

• Plotly

• D3.js

Which dataset is used in the video to demonstrate basic interactive plotting?

• MNIST

• Iris

• Star Wars

• Titanic

What is the purpose of using 'drop NA' in the context of the Star Wars dataset?

• To remove missing values

• To sort the dataset

• To add missing values

• To duplicate the dataset

How can you manually assign colors to plot points in Plotly?

• Using color_map

• Using set_color

• Using color_palette

• Using scale_color_manual

What is the effect of setting the legend position in Plotly?

• It changes the plot's title

• It alters the plot's data points

• It adjusts where the legend appears

• It modifies the plot's axis labels

What additional coordinate is introduced in a three-dimensional plot?

• U

• V

• Z

• W

Which dataset is used to demonstrate surface plots in the video?
