I am currently trying to create a scatterplot with a best-fit line.

df %>% 
  ggplot(aes(y = d_emp, x=d_gdp))  
  geom_point()  
  geom_smooth(method = "lm", se = "FALSE")

However, I keep getting the following error message:

Computation failed in stat_smooth(): invalid 'x' type in 'x || y'

The scatterplot works perfectly, it is only the best fit line that does not show (so the geom_smooth part).

Here is what my dataset looks like:

CodePudding user response：

You provided a string to the boolean argument se. This should work

df %>% 
  ggplot(aes(y = d_emp, x = d_gdp))  
  geom_point()  
  geom_smooth(method = "lm", se = FALSE)
