msleep


This is an updated and expanded version of the mammals sleep dataset.
Updated sleep times and weights were taken from V. M. Savage and G. B.
West. A quantitative, theoretical framework for understanding mammalian
sleep. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 104 (3):1051-1056,
2007.


datasets

An implementation of the grammar of graphics in R. It combines the
advantages of both base and lattice graphics: conditioning and shared axes
are handled automatically, and you can still build up a plot step by step
from multiple data sources. It also implements a sophisticated
multidimensional conditioning system and a consistent interface to map
data to aesthetic attributes. See http://ggplot2.org for more information,
documentation and examples.
