It’s more than a century after the RMS Titanic sank down. But, do you know who boarded the RMS Titanic? How many people survived from the disaster? We got a list of 1352 passengers, grouped by gender and made charts to understand the figures in a glance.
There are many easy ways to create charts. Here, we introduce two different, but equally easy ways. Our data is based on 1352 passengers who survived the RMS Titanic. The survivors are grouped by gender, and we tried out two different charts with the same data in both Flourish and R.
1. Using a free data visualisation tool
Flourish is a free visualisation platform that turns your spreadsheets into savvy maps and charts. Anyone can create stunning visualisation stories within a few clicks. Here’s steps you need to take to make a simple stack bar chart.
2. Making a chart in R with six lines of code
R is a useful language for journalists because of its easy syntax. The tidyverse is the powerful package of data exploration and visualisation.
