CREATE A TIME SERIES PLOT in r with ggplot-CodePudding

I have problems with coding of BIG DATA.

view(data)

Year	Month	Deaths
1998	1	200
1998	2	40
1998	3	185
1998	4	402
1998	5	20
1998	6	48
1998	7	290
1998	8	15
1998	9	252
1998	10	409
1998	11	233
1998	12	122

My data goes until 2014. I would like to create a time series. In the x-Axis only some years are available in 5 year step. In the y axis the deaths of all month during the 2000 years are shown. I don't know how can I code that?

CodePudding user response：

I am not sure if it is right because I didn't have any data. I have this from a programming book

data$date = as.Date(paste(data$Year, data$Month,1), format = "%Y %m %d")

ggplot(data,
       aes(
         x = date,
         y = Deaths,
        ))  
  geom_line()  
  ggtitle("Time series")  
  xlab("Year")  
  ylab("Deaths")
