Hello RStudio Community!
I would like to generate a sequence of interactive plots from a collection of time series data using 'dygraphs' but instead of using the "default" (mdeaths, fdealths, ldeaths) data sets, I would like to read this 'tabular' (?) format data from a file (txt and/or csv), instead.
The specific 'example' code that I am referring to can be found at the following URL:
https://rstudio.github.io/dygraphs/gallery-series-options.html
I believe that I understand what is going on with this series of 'dygraphs' routines but I cannot get the format correct before generating the plot.
Please know that I routinely (...easily!) read data sets using csv format data files but the data sets that I found in these examples are different and in a (...cool!) tabular format that I would like to appropriately learn how to read from a file...
An example from the URL above:
mdeaths
