Your Turn
Open the 01_08 project. Then, within the your-turn.R file:
Combine the rnaturalearthdata::countries110 dataset with gapminder_2007 and create a choropleth comparing country populations.
Use
countryname()to add a column togapminder_2007that contains the ISO3C country codesJoin together the
countries110andgapminder_2007dataset using your new columnUse
mapview()to visualise thelifeExpcolumn

The Gapminder dataset used in this video comes from Hans Rosling’s TED Talk and I highly recommend watching it. The animated GIF included in my slides was produced using the gganimate package using this script.
