Day 1 - 30 days R learning plan for gganimate, plotly, and rgl, and their combination

 

Here’s a step-by-step tutorial for Day 1 to get you started with plotly in R. This guide will walk you through the installation process and teach you how to create basic interactive plots like scatter, bar, and line charts.

---

Step 1: Install and Load plotly

1.     Open RStudio (or any R environment): Make sure you have an R environment ready to work with.

2.     Install plotly: If you haven’t installed plotly yet, use the following code:

install.packages("plotly")

3.     Load plotly: Load the library so that you can use it in your session.

library(plotly)

---

Step 2: Create Basic Interactive Plots

A. Scatter Plot

1.     Create Sample Data: For the scatter plot, let’s create a simple dataset to plot.

# Sample data

x <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

y <- c(10, 15, 13, 17, 20)

2.     Create a Scatter Plot with plot_ly(): Use plot_ly() to create an interactive scatter plot.

scatter_plot <- plot_ly(x = ~x, y = ~y, type = 'scatter', mode = 'markers')

scatter_plot

• Explanation:
• x = ~x and y = ~y: Define the x and y coordinates for the points.
• type = 'scatter': Specifies a scatter plot.
• mode = 'markers': Displays only markers (you can also try 'lines+markers').

B. Bar Chart

1.     Create Sample Data for a Bar Chart:

categories <- c("A", "B", "C", "D")

values <- c(20, 14, 23, 17)

2.     Create a Bar Chart:

bar_chart <- plot_ly(x = ~categories, y = ~values, type = 'bar')

bar_chart

• Explanation:
• x = ~categories: Defines the x-axis labels.
• y = ~values: Defines the values for each bar.
• type = 'bar': Specifies a bar chart.

C. Line Chart

1.     Create Data for a Line Chart:

time <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

values <- c(3, 7, 9, 6, 10)

2.     Create a Line Chart:

line_chart <- plot_ly(x = ~time, y = ~values, type = 'scatter', mode = 'lines')

line_chart

• Explanation:
• type = 'scatter' with mode = 'lines': This combination creates a line plot.
• x = ~time and y = ~values: Define the x and y coordinates for the line.

---

Step 3: Customize Your Plots

You can customize colors, add titles, and adjust axis labels for each plot.

1.     Add Titles and Labels:

# Scatter Plot with Labels

scatter_plot <- scatter_plot %>%

  layout(title = "Interactive Scatter Plot",

         xaxis = list(title = "X Axis"),

         yaxis = list(title = "Y Axis"))

# Bar Chart with Labels

bar_chart <- bar_chart %>%

  layout(title = "Interactive Bar Chart",

         xaxis = list(title = "Categories"),

         yaxis = list(title = "Values"))

# Line Chart with Labels

line_chart <- line_chart %>%

  layout(title = "Interactive Line Chart",

         xaxis = list(title = "Time"),

         yaxis = list(title = "Values"))

2.     View Customized Plots: Display each plot with the customized labels.

scatter_plot

bar_chart

line_chart

Step 4: Explore Interactivity

Hover over the data points on each plot to see interactive information, and try zooming and panning. plotly provides built-in interactivity, including tooltips and customizable actions.

Overseas Pakistani may need to invest in Pakistan

It is usually said by Pakistani people living abroad that they are not investing in Pakistan, as its situation is not stable. However, it has to be considered that only about 10% people living abroad can afford property in those countries. Many people have not much money to purchase property abroad. Therefore, it needs for them to purchase some property in Pakistan. Usually, people living abroad can purchase plots, flats, or shops in about 200 or 300 pounds saving per month. In the sale and purchase of property, people have to consider that it has certain cycles of ups and downs of payments. For instance, in almost every politician’s time, property have gone up and then down. In Dubai, where there is no obvious politics, prices of plots go up and down. Nevertheless, overseas Pakistanis can purchase property in lower monthly payments as compared to the past.

Factors in the decline of prices in DHA Phase 5, Rawalpindi/Islamabad

(Source: https://www.dhai-r.com.pk/phase-detail/phase-v)

DHA Expressway is present in DHA Phase 5. This phase already has several important buildings, including Novacare healthcare, Caltex petrol pump, McDonald’s, and DHA’s main building. Considering this development, many private agencies have also started their developments in this area. Earlier this year, an 8 marla plot was available only at about 10 crores, and even 4 marla plots have the price in the range above 4 crores. Now, the prices for 8 marla plots have gone down to about 9 crores to 9.5 crores, and 4 marla plots are now at about 3.65 crores.

Considering the reasons behind the decline in prices, even with the presence of all different types of positive factors, it can be noted that after budget, commercial plots got Federal Excise Duty (FED). So, when someone gets a plot in DHA, they have to pay not only Advance Tax but also FED and DHA Membership Fee. These extra burdens of taxes result in the decline in prices. Another reason is the presence of businessway where people have started showing interest leading to a decline in prices near DHA expressway. Then, the development of Central Commercial, where banks, parks, and plaza with rents can be found. These three factors can be considered important in the decline in prices. However, the completion of DHA headoffice in phase 5 (by December 2025) and the completion of other famous areas (already mentioned), such as Novacare hospital (by 2026 or 2027) can eventually increase the prices of plots.

Capital Smart City is one of the housing societies in Islamabad, Pakistan. It is said that plots in Capital Smart City are experiencing profits. People who got plots in Prime One also experience further benefits of achieving their plots and make their homes. It is also said that people from Villa Apartment are also experiencing profits. In this area, people having 5 marla plots can get about 35 lacs to 40 lacs of profit. Considering people with 10 marla plots in this area, who acquired plots in about 1.35 crores to 1.40 crores, now may get about 3 crores for their plots within 4 years. People from Executives also experience profits. On the other hand, people with balloted plots in Executives, and now shifting to other areas, may experience loss. However, chances are high that they would get profit. Eventually, people with plots or balloted plots in Overseas may get good profits within 5 years of possession. This is because this area gets such a way that comes while moving from Motorway to DHA Gandhara, Faisal Town, and Blue World City. So, Overseas Central is one of the most important and beneficial area in terms of property profits.

FBR in Pakistan is posing some taxes on property business. In the Top City Housing Society, the transfer fees of 5 marla plots is about 2.67 lacs for the buyer and 1.56 lacs for the owner of the property. In this housing society, the rate of the plot is about 70 lacs. FBR is also increasing the DC rate. For instance, if previously, DC rate of a 70 lac rupees plot was 35 lacs, it would increase to about 50 lacs to 55 lacs. In this case, property teams and Islamabad Chamber of Commerce have to arrange meetings with FBR, as many people in FBR may not have this much experience about property. For instance, people with salaries may not be able to understand the property-related business.

The real estate business found a novel trend during 2016 to 2017. It started integrating social media. After that time, many clients started looking social media. However, mostly people have experienced losses after this. One of the main reasons for losses is that people have not done investigation on their own and often started investing in Files in societies.

Another point to be considered is that on installment plan, you may not find property in Islamabad. You may have to go outside of Islamabad in new housing societies. Usually, these installment plans are associated with long term investments that may range from 8 years to 10 years, but people may start getting panicked within 3 years that why I am not getting profit. One thing, in case of fraud, you may note that the housing society has not done any progress for the last 2 to 3 years, and still calling clients to get plots. The housing societies that are constantly doing something on ground for clients can be considered authentic and can be asked for payments on installments.
