Staggering excess Business Insider calls this stacked bar chart "staggering" (link). Maybe they are referring to its complexity. Is there a reason to include all the fine details? Add Text Annotations to ggplot2 Faceted Plot In my experience with R learners there are two basic types. The “show me the code and what it does and let me play” type and the “please give me step by step directions” type. I’ve broken the following tutorial on plotting text on faceted ggplot2 plots into 2 sections:The Complete Code and Final OutcomeA Bit of Explanation Hopefully, whatever learner you are you’ll be plotting text on faceted graphics in no time.

Learning R as a language Books written to teach a general purpose programming language are usually organized according to the features of the language and examples often show how a particular language feature is interpreted by a compiler. Books about domain specific languages are usually organized in a way that makes sense in the corresponding application domain and examples usually illustrate how a particular domain problem can be solved using the language. I have spent a lot of time using R over the last year and by dint of reading lots of R code and various introductions to the language I have managed to piece together a model of the language. I managed to one introduction to R written from the perspective of the programming language (and not the application domain): the original The Art of R Programming by Norman Matloff has been expanded and is now available as a book.
